[solved]move ibus-chewing from aur to community

it is really weird that ibus-chewing is in aur while ibus-pinyin and all related conponents are in arch [community] repository.
please move ibus-chewing to community. Thanks.

Re: [solved]move ibus-chewing from aur to community

Not being very familiar with ibus, I have to ask: what makes this particular ibus package special compared to the other 35 in the AUR? It's not a hard dependency or else it would have been moved.

Re: [solved]move ibus-chewing from aur to community

ibus is the successor of scim(smart common input method), which is aimed to replace scim. it is for input languages other than english, such as japanese, korean, and chinese. it is quite famous because ubuntu already uses it to replace scim for a long time.

# ibus-anthy
# ibus-pinyin
# ibus-chewing
# ibus-hangul

You could ask the maintainer of all the ibus packages to bring this one in too.   Get that info from the package search on the main website.

Re: [solved]move ibus-chewing from aur to community

there is no way that i can contact those packagers; the package info just shows their names.

ibus is quite important. Hope some TUs or developers saw this post.

Hey, just so happened, I stumbled upon this thread!
I will bring in ibus-chewing and ibus-hangul soon (within the day).

P.S. yes, "<gostrc at gmail>" is invalid, as it should be tongue

Re: [solved]move ibus-chewing from aur to community

thx Tom.
Just feel sad that SCIM is no longer maintained. All projects have switched to ibus, including chrome os. (git: http://git.chromium.org/gitweb/?o=age)
