[Pkg-ime-devel] Bug#692424: Bug#692424: ibus: Merge fixes from Ubuntu
Hi Jeremy,
I have gone over your patch and there is a problem in it:
-Recommends: ibus-gtk3, ibus-gtk, ibus-qt4, ibus-clutter, im-config | im-switch
+Recommends: ibus-gtk3 | ibus-qt4 | ibus-clutter, ibus-gtk | ibus-qt4
| ibus-clutter, im-config | im-switch
Actually the original one is intentional to be like that, you may
downgrade ibus-clutter to Suggests, but we need to have all the three
other IM Modules in Recommends because:
1. There is no facility assisting users to install needed component
when his/her environment changes, e.g. when a Ubuntu user installs
some Qt4 application, there isn't a way to notify his/her about
installing ibus-qt4.
2. Distribution maker should be able to choose what package they want
to ship in ISO, by not enabling Recommends during the generation.
3. Disk space is cheap.
4. im-config requires both Gtk2 and Gtk3 IM Modules to be installed
before really setting GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus, otherwise it uses xim for
this variable.
