[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1430893] Re: [FFe] Install Fcitx for Chinese users
Hi, I just tested Vivid Beta2 for zh_TW locale. Here are some inputs: 1. After fresh installation, there is no traditional Chinese input method installed by default. However, we expect to have fcitx-chewing installed after the installation process by default. It is not that intuitive for users to check themselves or wait for the prompt from Language Support which many users will just Skip/Neglect it. 2. Language Support will install fcitx-chewing for zh_TW locale which is great. However, the system does not prompt to re-login and nothing happens after the installation. You cannot see fcitix-chewing activated until you re-login. I believe many users might not figure out why they still don't get input methods ready after the installation. Should I file bug reports for these issues? Or they should be treated as part of this bug report? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to language-selector in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1430893 Title: [FFe] Install Fcitx for Chinese users Status in im-config package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in kubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: There are currently two main supported input method frameworks available for CJK users: IBus (current default) and Fcitx.

@Cheng-Chia Tseng: fcitx-chewing seems not to be in main yet, which I suspect might explain it. According to bug #1356222 fcitx-chewing has been approved for main. Since it didn't end up in the desktop seed, as initially proposed, a developer may need to move it to main manually. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to language-selector in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1430893 Title: [FFe] Install Fcitx for Chinese users Status in im-config package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in kubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: There are currently two main supported input method frameworks available for CJK users: IBus (current default) and Fcitx.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1430893] Re: [FFe] Install Fcitx for Chinese users
@Ikuya, thanks for the translations, and good to know your opinion. About the status bar, I would recommend to consider dropping it as in OS X (verified default Japanese input method in it just now). It's a long history that all Pinyin (the most popular way of inputing Simplified Chinese) engines have their own status bar, indicating some status information and let people be able to switch/toggle them by clicking on it. But in recent years its fading out, and on OS X they removed status bar for all languages altogether, not mentioning many Chinese input method vendors are discovering the possibility of halving the size of candidate box by making use of pre-edit extensively. This is also true for most (if not all) languages in GNOME and KDE when we using their native implementations of input method UI (gjs- implemented UI, kimpanel plasma widget). So Unity desktop could be the last major one on Linux that's still displaying status bar, and it's a good chance of changing it at the same time of switching default input method framework. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to language-selector in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1430893 Title: [FFe] Install Fcitx for Chinese users Status in im-config package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: There are currently two main supported input method frameworks available for CJK users: IBus (current default) and Fcitx.

All changes have land in vivid, and the daily-live of March 20th contains all these changes. @Ikuya, translations of qimpanel are made available on Launchpad yesterday, and it will be shipped on vivid's language pack update next week. The indicator menu items and default theme are still improving, please tell me what you think if you have time to give it a try. As for the Japanese remix that uses Fcitx, I would recommend you to work out a decision on what to do with Japanese locales, and if it's fcitx, we can implement in the same way for Chinese (l-s pkg_depends + im- config locale_prefs). Fcitx is not preferred over ibus on non-zh locales anymore in vivid (we might do that again in vivid+1 if the transition is OK), otherwise live session users will always have fcitx enabled, that's not expected to happen in this cycle. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to language-selector in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1430893 Title: [FFe] Install Fcitx for Chinese users Status in im-config package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: There are currently two main supported input method frameworks available for CJK users: IBus (current default) and Fcitx.

We just discussed this on #ubuntu-desktop - I think this is the plan - Add fcitx friends to 'live' seed (dropping ibus-pinyin others at the same time), so that it's installed in the live session (it needs to be started up before the session starts) but not in the target by default. - Add it to pkg_depends of language-selector (per #1431337), so that check-language-support -l zh_CN returns fcitx packages. + This will cause the installer to keep fcitx only when the selected language is Chinese, and remove it otherwise. + In installed systems, language-selector will prompt to install fcitx. - If necessary (not sure if it is), fix language-selector to select fcitx as IM for Chinese when there is no pre-existing configuration. + We don't try to change .xinputrc for existing users.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1430893] Re: [FFe] Install Fcitx for Chinese users
@Nobuto: The fact that there is a Japanese remix with fcitx as default means that some Japanese users will be affected by the proposed 15.04 changes whether we like it or not. Up to now, you have been able to decide the default IM framework per distro by having fcitx installed by default or not. fcitx has been installed by default in Ubuntu Kylin, and hence fcitx has automatically been the default IM framework. According to Ikuya the same is true for a Japanese remix. As from 15.04 fcitx will be installed by default for all users, and thus it will no longer be possible to determine the default IM framework per distro in the same way. I have no idea how many Japanese users install the Japanese remix and how many install standard Ubuntu, though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to language-selector in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1430893 Title: [FFe] Install Fcitx for Chinese users Status in im-config package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: There are currently two main supported input method frameworks available for CJK users: IBus (current default) and Fcitx.

I have a couple of thoughts on the proposed im-config changes. Shouldn't the new .conf file reside in /etc rather than /usr/share, or else possible user settings would be overwritten when the im-config package is updated? Maybe theoretical, but: If LC_CTYPE is set explicitly, its value is not surrounded by quotes in the locale output. I suppose the intention is to include a few Chinese (and maybe Japanese) entries in the Ubuntu version of the .conf file. But in that case, shouldn't the code in debian/rules be changed back to have ibus as default?
