Don't know if it was the hard reboot, the reboot after I installed gobject-introspection and reinstalled ibus-pinyin. Btw, does ibus-m17n chinese require the ibus-pinyin package? Thanks. I have responded in line in following comments. You can mark this bug as solved (I guess it wasn't a bug? I just never realized that gobject-introspection was a needed package).<br>

</div>This means ibus-pinin works on my end. You seem to be doing sopmething<br>
wrong to me. Are you sure you have bug. (At least this is<br>
unreproducible.)<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>It is finally working. I think what was necessary was the gobject-introspection package. The Chinese finally works now (using the m17n:zh:py), but only after I uninstalled ibus-pinyin and reinstalled and then restart. (I'm not sure what procedure cleared things up, but I did restart after install gobject-introspection, that didn't work. I did power down, so maybe that was necessary).<br>

Actually, I tested ibus-pinyin too. It is OK.<br>

Anyway, do they still causing errors such as:<br>

By the way, is this your first time setting up this kind of things or<br>
are you familiar with things?<br>
<br>
If you do not know how, please seek help elsewhere. This is bug report<br>
communication only.<br>
<br>
Also, have you configured system properly with "apt-get dist-upgrade"?<br>
If you kept using "apt-get upgrade" only, system may get into funckey<br>
situation beyond what we support.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I am familiar with ibus policies, and I have been on sid for quite some time. I use aptitude (not big difference), and I constantly upgrade. I did a full-upgrade when I switched from testing to sid. But that was a while back. It's working now, everything. I will see if I can uninstall ibus-pinyin (keeping m17n). <br>
