[Bug 1439006] Re: Install Fcitx for Japanese users
Personally I don't think gyp would cause a lot trouble and the main problem would be the dependency to framework libraries. Would it be possible to split the package into two sources or something like that so we are able build only ibus/fcitx support from a source that's OK to MIR? I don't think we want to MIR all of the frameworks. Just dropping uim support in Ubuntu by dropping d/p/uim-mozc.patch and build-depends:libuim-dev is a good option, IMO. I tried it a few months ago[1] and found it was useful to keep a diff from Debian minimal.

I'll have a look at kkc soon, but if mozc is preferred we'd better to find a solution rather than applying a work around, :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1439006 Title: Install Fcitx for Japanese users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im-config/+bug/1439006/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1439006] Re: Install Fcitx for Japanese users
@Aron, I'm not sure about the future including Desktop Next or convergence, however I believe it's still worthy to have Mozc as default for the time being. The engine itself is well maintained by Google team as Mozc/Google Japanese Input(It's like a Chromium/Chrome relation) in upstream, and popular on Windows, Linux and Android with no doubt. Up until now, we didn't bring Mozc to MIR because it has a wide dependencies. Now that fcitx is in main, a big remaining depedency is gyp. It would be great if Desktop team is positive to maintain it. @Ikuya, your input is more than welcome. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1439006 Title: Install Fcitx for Japanese users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im-config/+bug/1439006/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1439006] Re: Install Fcitx for Japanese users
@aron, yes, it is true that Mozc conversion engine is the *best* for Japanese input. I always use Mozc instead of Anthy. Mozc is default conversion engine on Ubuntu Japanese Remix which is our team is released. Anthy is stopped to develop for a long time. But I think it is hard to pass MIR because Mozc has a lot of dependency. http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/wily/mozc So I think libkkc is *better* than Anthy and it is not difficult to pass MIR rather than Mozc. http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/wily/libkkc fcitx-kkc is now in menters.debian.net as you know. https://mentors.debian.net/package/fcitx-kkc Thanks, -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1439006 Title: Install Fcitx for Japanese users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im-config/+bug/1439006/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1439006] Re: Install Fcitx for Japanese users
@ikuya, I have a question when revisiting this bug, that is how do you evaluate the possibility of using mozc engine as default, rather than anthy? I'm not a user of either because I don't type in Japanese, but there's quite a few hints that show mozc is much more advanced than the aged anthy. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1439006 Title: Install Fcitx for Japanese users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im-config/+bug/1439006/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
