Title:
Improve default selection of IBus related packages
Status in Ubuntu Kylin:
Fix Released
Status in “ubuntu-meta” package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
Currently we have:
"""
Input methods:
* (im-config)
* (ibus)
* (ibus-gtk3)
* (ibus-table)
* (ibus-pinyin)
* (ibus-pinyin-db-android)
"""
This is suboptimal in many ways.
1. ibus-gtk should be included, since we have notable GTK2 applications like
Firefox and LibreOffice.
2. ibus-table doesn't provide a working input method by itself, it needs at
least one of ibus-table-* package to work.
3. ibus-pinyin is useful for only limited set of people; even Simplified
Chinese language support defaults to ibus-sunpinyin while UbuntuKylin and
LinuxDeepin (a noteable Ubuntu-based distro in China) switch to Fcitx
altogether.
The conclusion is that the real workhorse IBus related packages would be
pulled by language support.
For meta package like ubuntu-desktop, we either leave a barebone IBus (ibus,
ibus-gtk, ibus-gtk3) or remove IBus altogether.
