In a couple of days, I'd guess.

That package is needed for Kubuntu, and is installed only if the kio
package was installed previously, which it is not on standard Ubuntu
AFAIK. Not a bug.

Title:
  Can't input Chinese characters in daily built

Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  OS: Ubuntu 18.04 Daily Built 2018-03-08.

  As reported in the Ubuntu Chinese forum (in Chinese):

  http://forum.ubuntu.com.cn/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=486823

  users cannot input Chinese characters.

  It appears the daily built uses sunpinyin as the default Chinese input
  method.  But sunpinyin is not included in the iso.

  Sunpinyin has not been maintained for at least a couple of years;
  several problems have been reported associated therewith but remain
  unsolved, and it doesn't appear that the problems will be solved any
  time soon.

  Ibus-libpinyin has been working very smoothly inside Bionic.  Its
  frequency table regarding single words can be improved, but it works
  very well for phrases.

  I suggest we change the default Chinese input method from sunpinyin to
  libpinyin (i.e., intelligent pinyin).

  This is an urgent matter.
