- libpinyin wasn't updated for a year. There is now a
   2.1 release.
   https://github.com/libpinyin/libpinyin/releases

 - same with ibus-libpinyin  1.9.2
   https://github.com/libpinyin/ibus-libpinyin/releases

   and it looks like this version has support for lua5.2,
   please check for 5.3 as well.

Title:
  [MIR] ibus-libpinyin and dependencies

Status in ibus-libpinyin package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in libpinyin package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in lua5.1 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Please include these packages in Ubuntu's component main:

  * ibus-libpinyin
  * libpinyin (the ibus-libpinyin binary depends on libpinyin7)
  * lua5.1 (the ibus-libpinyin binary depends on liblua5.1-0)

  As has been discussed at bug #1735362 we would like to replace ibus-
  sunpinyin with ibus-libpinyin ("Intelligent Pinyin") in the live seed
  and as the default input method for typing Simplified Chinese. Reasons
  for the switch are:

  - ibus-libpinyin is better maintained
  - ibus-libpinyin is built with and depends on Python3
    (not yet in Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/883631)
  - ibus-libpinyin is default input method in GNOME
