Cannot switch to Chinese Input Method with fcitx after upgrading to Debian Buster
Hi all,
Yesterday I upgraded my Debian Stretch to Debian Buster. Something unexpected happens. I cannot switch to fcitx-googlepinyin/sunpinyin with fcitx.
In Debian Stretch, if I click "Ctrl+Space", it will change to fcitx-googlepinyin. And then I can type Chinese. However, in buster, when I click
"Ctrl+Space", there is no other input method shown. Only English could be typed.
I run "fcitx-diagnose", but cannot understand the result. Is there anyone who encounters the same problem with me? Do you have any solution?

My best regards to you.
