We just discussed this on #ubuntu-desktop - I think this is the plan - Add fcitx & friends to 'live' seed (dropping ibus-pinyin & others at the same time), so that it's installed in the live session (it needs to be started up before the session starts) but not in the target by default. - Add it to pkg_depends of language-selector (per #1431337), so that check-language-support -l zh_CN returns fcitx packages. + This will cause the installer to keep fcitx only when the selected language is Chinese, and remove it otherwise. + In installed systems, language-selector will prompt to install fcitx. - If necessary (not sure if it is), fix language-selector to select fcitx as IM for Chinese when there is no pre-existing configuration. + We don't try to change .xinputrc for existing users.
To test this effectively, we have to do the seed change - the rest can be done locally. Not acking the FFe yet, but please (temporarily for now) go ahead with the above seed change. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1430893 Title: [FFe] Install Fcitx for Chinese users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im-config/+bug/1430893/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
