Bug#721734: [Pkg-ime-devel] Bug#721734: ibus-googlepinyin: Abondened upstream
control: retitle 721734 depend directly to python-ibus control: severity 721734 wishlist This is not normal bug yet ... but will be a bug after ibus 1.5 transition. Hi, I am retitling this bug.

If you think I am wrong, please speak up. I think this is wrong, and I believe there is still some users using it without problem. If we are going to remove anything abandoned upstream then we have lots of packages to be removed... No, I am not suggesting to remove anything abandoned upstream. Question is how many duplicate/overwrapping functionality packages should we keep to maintain? If libpinyin, sunpinyin, and libgooglepinyin all support pinyin input method and other two has technical advantages, why should we keep libgooglepinyin? Upstream developer characterized this package as this. So I tool it as true and it is not so desirable state. Since I do not know better, I put this bug report. Of course, memory footprint, speed, conversion table bug, popularity, ... should be counted too. With your strong opinion, I checked popcon. To my surprise, out of ibus-libpinyin ibus-sunpinyin ibus-googlepinyin ibus-chewing, the ibus-googlepinyin package has the highest popcon. http://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=ibus-libpinyin+ibus-sunpinyin+ibus-googlepinyin+ibus-chewingshow_installed=on I guess that this popularity comes from Simplified Chinese * task has this. Anyway, unless people who decided Simplified Chinese * changes mind, it is not right to remove the ibus-googlepinyin package by my request. Now that we are to keep this package, we need to add python-ibus dependency since ibus will not depend on python-ibus opnce ibus 1.5.3 icomes to unstable. Retitled bug accordingly. Regards, Osamu PS: I am still wondering what advantage people found on googlepinyin, though. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
