Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you appreciate it.

The deprecation message is included in ppa:gunnarhj/ibus-unikey. If you
have that version installed, the message is located in the
/usr/share/doc/ibus-unikey/README.md file. That message is a downer, of
course. Is the project really maintained when the author/maintainer has
expressed an intention to step down? See also <https://github.com/vn-
input/ibus-unikey/issues/24>.

Anyway, it's good that you agree that we should still use that version
for now.

That's a coincidence. The explanation is that while English (US) is hard
coded as underlying layout in the version in the archive, ibus-unikey in
the PPAs use "default" instead. So in your case you now have Colemak as
the underlying layout when using ibus-unikey. You would probably have
been less happy if e.g. Russian had been your supplementary input
source. ;)

In other words: That gnome-shell bug is not fixed, even if it doesn't
affect you any longer.

The only thing I can say about that is that the difference is just one
click, i.e. you need to click "More settings..." before you can switch
input method.

@Lê Quốc Tuấn: If you see this, do you have any thoughts?
