@Ping-Wu: Right, the ibus-libpinyin package provides both an "intelligent Pinyin" and a "Bopomofo" input method.
Yeah, suggested improvements is certainly another "thread". ;) This is actually a bug report with a very specific adminstrative purpose. If you want to discuss improvements, I think the proper way is to file an upstream issue here: https://github.com/libpinyin/ibus-libpinyin/issues Anyway, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS will be shipped with ibus-libpinyin 1.9.2. I'm not sure that would have happened without your input here, so thank you very much for calling our attention to the usability differences compared to the current version in Ubuntu 17.10. Much appreciated! ** Description changed: Please include these packages in Ubuntu's component main: * ibus-libpinyin - * libpinyin (the ibus-libpinyin binary depends on libpinyin7) + * libpinyin (the ibus-libpinyin binary depends on libpinyin13) As has been discussed at bug #1735362 we would like to replace ibus- sunpinyin with ibus-libpinyin ("Intelligent Pinyin") in the live seed and as the default input method for typing Simplified Chinese. Reasons for the switch are: - ibus-libpinyin is better maintained - ibus-libpinyin is built with and depends on Python3 - (not yet in Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/883631) - ibus-libpinyin is default input method in GNOME Bugs ibus-libpinyin ------------------- https://github.com/libpinyin/ibus-libpinyin/issues https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=ibus-libpinyin https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus-libpinyin Bugs libpinyin -------------- https://github.com/libpinyin/libpinyin/issues (no open Debian or Ubuntu bugs) - - I have read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMainInclusionRequirements, and haven't found any issues that would prevent the proposed main inclusion. + I have read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuMainInclusionRequirements, and + haven't found any issues that would prevent the proposed main inclusion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to libpinyin in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1738582 Title: [MIR] ibus-libpinyin and dependencies Status in ibus-libpinyin package in Ubuntu: New Status in libpinyin package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Please include these packages in Ubuntu's component main: * ibus-libpinyin * libpinyin (the ibus-libpinyin binary depends on libpinyin13) As has been discussed at bug #1735362 we would like to replace ibus- sunpinyin with ibus-libpinyin ("Intelligent Pinyin") in the live seed and as the default input method for typing Simplified Chinese.
