Public bug reported: Unity integrates both ibus and fcitx. At least it used to. What I mean by that is that if you use e.g. fcitx, you can manage also fcitx input sources from Text Entry, and no Fcitx icon is shown in the top bar.
But time goes by, and the version of fcitx supported by Unity (fcitx 4) is deprecated and replaced by fcitx 5. As from Ubuntu 21.10 language- selector-common pulls fcitx 5 for Chinese users instead of fcitx 4. So something should be done about this. I can think of two options: 1. Adapt the fcitx integration to work with fcitx 5. 2. Drop the fcitx integration, and let fcitx 5 do its thing alongside Text Entry etc. I chose to submit this bug against unity-control-center, but I'm pretty sure that more packages are affected. ** Affects: unity-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1968447 Title: Unity's fcitx integration has become obsolete To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-control-center/+bug/1968447/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
