[Bug 1435311] Re: Make sure fcitx-bin is installed when installing a Chinese language

 

In pkg_depends, if we specify lines as:

im:zh-hans::fcitx-pinyin

This means make l-s don't check the existence of any dependent package,
do you think this will work?

Title:
  Make sure fcitx-bin is installed when installing a Chinese language

Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  As a result of bug #1430893, check-language-support now pulls fcitx IM
  support for Chinese instead of IBus ditto. However, this is true only
  if the fcitx package is installed.

  Consider these steps:

  * Plain English install -> fcitx not installed

  * Install a Chinese language using Language Support, and find that
    1. No IM support gets installed and
    2. fcitx is not available as an IM framework option.

  I think it would make more sense to have the fcitx package installed
  for all users.
