  Done all that! There's no problem in installing a Persian keyboard layout. The main issue is that the layout works only in certain apps and not the rest. They don't carry that layout into every app one uses in Linux.
 And I happen to use an app quite often, in Linux, but have not found any layout out there that works inside it.
 So Linux is still for fiddlers and fun lovers. As soon as you want something serious done, you see the hand of Microsoft bribing the developers.
