Thank you for the detailed information.

First, I will try applying the GTK3 patch locally and see how it behaves
in Ubuntu and Xubuntu.

Regarding the upstream version of Mozc, yes, at the moment Debian is
also unable to package a newer version. I previously discussed this with
members of the Debian JP community, and the understanding was that even
if Bazel 7 were introduced into Debian, building Mozc would still be
difficult because Mozc + Bazel pulls in a very large number of
dependencies.

For reference, I heard that the openSUSE maintainer handles this by
bundling the source archives of all repositories imported by Bazel as
part of the Mozc source package.

Regarding Anthy as a substitute, migrating from Mozc to Anthy would
likely give a rather negative impression to many Ubuntu users in Japan,
since Mozc is widely used and expected in the Japanese input
environment.

Based on your explanation, I understand that removing the dependency on
GTK2 is currently the most realistic path forward. I will proceed in
that direction and report back with what I find regarding the GTK3
patch.

Thanks again for your guidance.
