I followed the steps as described in #24 and have tested the new ibus-
libpinyin 1.11 in 18.04.2 for more than two weeks. So far, I have not
encountered any sudden crash problem as experienced in 1.10.
Moving the proposed upgrade of ibus-libpinyin and associated
dependencies to bionic-updates should be a no-brainer. As I mentioned
prior, I couldn't find anyone in the Chinese Ubuntu forum who is using
ibus-libpinyin. No one can tolerate an input tool that will
"eventually" crash--and cannot be recovered unless the user possesses
certain CLI skills and is willing to delete the user-established
vocabulary that is the most important part of a Chinese input method.
That said, the most important question is, whether the upgrade of ibus-
libpinyin as proposed adversely affects other packages? I have not
noticed that upgrade of ibus-libpinyin as proposed affected any of my
daily operations. One of the Chinese Ubuntu forum members ("百草谷居士") who
agreed to participate in the testing, also expressed that there is no
interference with other packages. This is what he wrote:
"功能上还是老问题：不支持拼音输入特殊符号；紧随数字的逗号和句号不能自动转换为半角符号。
然后发现汉字里面夹杂了不少表情符号，我觉得奇怪，既然可以夹杂表情符号，为什么不能加上特殊符号呢
目前在终端、gnome桌面、geany、libreoffice中使用正常。"
(No problem with gnome-terminal, gnome desktop apps, geany,
libreoffice.)
With the above-mentioned positive results, I recommend that the proposed
move should go ahead. Indeed, if Ubuntu wants to regain its China
market, this is a necessary first step.
