[ Shengjing Zhu ]
* Switch to fcitx5 for Simplified and Traditional Chinese desktop.
Fcitx5 works for Wayland. (Closes: #983704)
+ [ Holger Wansing]
+ * GNOME now depends on ibus. For some languages, there are additional
+ packages needed, to make ibus work. Adding them for Amharic, Simplified
+ chinese, Traditional chinese, Japanese, Kannada, Malayalam and Telugu.
+ This requites new task-*-gnome-desktop packages to be added for Amharic,
+ Simplified chinese, Traditional chinese, and Kannada.
+ Thanks to Shengjing Zhu for working out the circumstances.
+ * ibus does not have default configurations for all languages, so force
+ to create one via gnome-initial-setup for all the languages using ibus.
