Bug#1037022: rime-data-jyut6ping3: Words/Characters not sorted by frequency (vocabulary file missing)
Package: rime-data-jyut6ping3
Version: 0.0~git20230209.e0295fa-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
X-Debbugs-Cc: foka@debian.org
Recently, the Jyut6ping3 Cantonese input method became very awkward to
use because the vocabularies (words and characters) are not sorted by
frequency order.
It turns out that, starting with upstream snapshot 0.0~git20230209.e0295fa
(or thereabouts in early February 2023), upstream maintainers has switched
from using the preset vocabulary file in /usr/share/rime-data/essay.txt
(from the rime-essay package) to a Cantonese-specific vocabulary file
in /usr/share/rime-data/essay-cantonese.txt which unfortunately was not
installed in rime-data-jyut6ping3 0.0~git20230209.e0295fa-1.
Installing /usr/share/rime-data/essay-cantonese.txt resolves the issue;
see the attached install-essay-cantonese.patch.
Cheers,
Anthony Fok
