No ABI change is involved. Data passed from library call is now encoded
in UTF-8 instead of EUCJP by the new library (or I should say the new
library use new data in anthy-common in UTF-8)

See below.

Actually, we may need to upload few manually updated packages.
One package just uploaded with such manual patch by NOKUBI Takatsugu.
ibus-anthy_1.5.9-2.1_amd64.changes ACCEPTED unstable
So at least anthy is usable with ibus now in unstable.
Are *-anthy packages uploaded to cope with this new anthy just like ibus-anthy?
fcitx-anthy
hime-anthy
scim-anthy
uim-anthy
Otherwise, they are broken in unstable now. (I did not have time to test
them yet)
Even these are updated with manual patches, all these updated package
needs to move together from unstable to testing. I am not very familiar
with this ABI breaking library update. We may need to add BREAKS: to
anthy to ensure this. (I am not sure) That may reqire to upload -7 for
anthy.
Anyway, these need to be properly coordinated.
Jeremy, your guidance is highly appreciated.
