[Pkg-ime-devel] ibus-table-extraphrase: RC, remove this? (Chinese related data)

[Osamu Aoki]

control: severity 768149 grave

I have reported this bug as: https://bugs.debian.org/768149

In short, ibus-table-extraphrase is very buggy for jessie.  I do not
mind fixing this bug as long as someone wants this package.  If
requested, I will request unblock and upload a new package to fix this
bug.

Here is the details:
Now, ibus-table 1.9.1-3 is in testing (jessie) and no response on this
bug (maybe it was not clear from the title and severity).  So I am
sending this mail with updated subject+severity.

The current ibus-table's NEWS has:
    • The database format is simplified which makes better matching
      possible. But because of the changed database format, the
      tables have to be rebuilt, i.e. packages like ibus-table-chinese
      and ibus-table-others have to be rebuilt against  ibus-table > 1.8.0.

So the current ibus-table-extraphrase package needs to be rebuild as I
understand. (If wrong, tell me so while downgrading the severity.)

If no one is interested in asking this bug to be fixed, this means this
package is not required by any and better to be removed from the
upcoming Debian release.

If anyone is interested this package to be shipped, I will make upload
with fixes as proposed previously:
 * rebuild with new ibus-table 1.9.1
 * add dependency to ibus-table (>=1.9.1~)
 * add this to IME Packaging Team
 * Fix 1 data in table as in 1.3.9.20110826

PS: As for adding this to IME Packaging group, Li being the member of
IME Package team, I am hoping this is what he intended with the next
upload.
