Right. Choosing ibus-sunpinyin was not preceded by any deeper
considerations. It was the preferred input method last time Ubuntu's
default IM framework for Simplified Chinese was IBus, and has been
pulled by language-selector (pkg_depends) after that for Ubuntu GNOME.
This package hasn't been updated since 2013. Previously we've added
it to the desktop session and then removed for ibus-pinyin for size
(and in this case it seems better maintained).
GNOME seems to default to ibus-libpinyin:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-desktop/tree/libgnome-desktop/default-input-sources.h
That would speak for replacing ibus-sunpinyin with ibus-libpinyin on
both the live CD and language-selector. But we should probably try to
get opinions from some Chinese users before making this change.
