tasksel: Input methods for chinese - (Was: Updating chinese-t-desktop in tasksel for Wheezy.)

[Holger Wansing <hwansing@mailbox.org>]

Hi all,

I stumbled over this 5 years old bug regarding input methods for Chinese.

Could someone comment on how the status is here?
What input methods are needed these days?


Currently we have for simplified Chinese:

Package: task-chinese-s-desktop
Architecture: all
Description: Simplified Chinese desktop
 This task localises the desktop in Simplified Chinese.
Depends: ${misc:Depends},
Recommends:
# Input method stuff
	im-config,
	fcitx,
	fcitx-sunpinyin,
	fcitx-googlepinyin,
	fcitx-table-wubi,
# Fonts
	fonts-arphic-ukai,
	fonts-arphic-uming,
	fonts-noto,
	fonts-noto-cjk,
# Software help and localization
	libreoffice-l10n-zh-cn,
	libreoffice-help-zh-cn,
	firefox-esr-l10n-zh-cn | firefox-l10n-zh-cn,
# Dictionary
	goldendict,
# poppler-data is needed to display
# Chinese on poppler applications.
	poppler-data



And for traditional Chinese:

Package: task-chinese-t-desktop
Architecture: all
Description: Traditional Chinese desktop
 This task localises the desktop in Traditional Chinese.
Depends: ${misc:Depends},
Recommends:
	scim,
	scim-chewing,
	scim-gtk-immodule,
	im-config,
	fonts-arphic-ukai,
	fonts-arphic-uming,
# seems openjdk needs this to display Chinese.
	fonts-noto,
	fonts-noto-cjk,
	libreoffice-l10n-zh-tw,
	libreoffice-help-zh-tw,
	firefox-esr-l10n-zh-tw | firefox-l10n-zh-tw,
# poppler-data is needed to display
# Chinese on poppler applications.
	poppler-data



Is this working so far, or should things be improved, to close this bug?

Thanks
Holger
