Public bug reported:
Ubuntu Trusty and Utopic are currently shipping some older versions of
libcangjie, which have some known issues.
Those are fixed in libcangjie 1.3, which is already in Vivid.
Trusty currently ships libcangjie 1.0, and Utopic has 1.1.
Moving from 1.0 to 1.3 implies no API/ABI break. (I even checked that
with abidiff, just to be sure)
The full release notes are available at this link:
https://github.com/Cangjians/libcangjie/releases
As one of the upstream developers for libcangjie, I'd prefer you just
updated to the latest upstream release in both Trusty and Utopic, but I
can understand this might not be the proper process in Ubuntu, so I'll
be more than happy to work with you to review differences, help backport
patches, or anything else which could help.
At the very least, user experience would be vastly improved by just
applying the following patches to the Ubuntu packages, both in Trusty
and Utopic:

These are all **data** fixes, no code changes. Getting this data fixed
in Ubuntu packages means that users will get the results they are
expecting when typing Chinese with IBus Cangjie.
These data fixes are important for Hong Kong users, who in majority use
a Cangjie input method. Most of them tend to run the latest LTS, which
is why I'd really like to have these fixes pushed all the way back to
Trusty.
