I don't know if upgrading via the ppa actually solved the random crash problem, but I never had any crash after the upgrade. There could be other reasons including gnome upgrades. But AT LEAST upgrading via the ppa did not cause any negative effects. Thus, I suggest applying the ibus-libpinyin upgrade to the newer version for Ubuntu 18.04.1.

I cannot reproduce it, but it occurred at least a few times, even after the official bionic release. Same crashes were also reported in the Ubuntu Chinese forum. Currently, the workaround is to delete the ~/.cache/ibus/libpinyin folder. I talked to Peng Wu, ibus-libpinyin's creator and main maintainer, he suggested that we update the version of ibus-libpinyin to 1.10. Can we give this update a trial?
