Package: ibus-keyman
Version: 16.0.139-4

Hi!

Without being sure I actually found a bug, I would like to raise a discussion as a follow-up of <https://bugs.debian.org/1033571> (which hasn't been well received so far). The unblock discussion made me aware of this script:

https://github.com/keymanapp/keyman/blob/master/linux/debian/ibus-keyman.postinst

The script makes me think of im-config, which sets the applicable environment variables and starts ibus-daemon at login.

I suppose the purpose with the script is to make ibus-keyman instantly usable in the same session as it is installed. I imagine that may work if ibus-daemon was already running and thus the needed environment variables already set for the session. But what if ibus was pulled as a dependency when installing ibus-keyman? Will keyman work in a meaningful way even if the variables are not present?

If the answer to that question is "no", wouldn't it be more straightforward to instruct the users to relogin before starting to use keyman, and thus drop the postinst script?

I may well have misunderstood it, and if so, I would appreciate a brief explanation of the intention with the script.
