https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Ibus_table_cangjie_default_for_zh_hk == Summary == Make ibus-table cangjie the default input method for zh_HK (Hongkong) locale. == Owner == * Name: [[User:Mfabian| Mike Fabian]] * Email: <mfabian@xxxxxxxxxx> == Detailed Description == Currently, ibus-cangjie is the default input method for zh_HK in Fedora. ibus-cangjie is not actively maintained anymore upstream. ibus-table and the cangjie tables in ibus-table-chinese are actively maintained and can replace ibus-cangjie. == Benefit to Fedora == A better input experience for users of the zh_HK locale. == Scope == * Proposal owners: The langtable package has data about default input methods. Change this data. But the data in langtable is currently apparently not used by gnome-initial setup. The list of default input methods used by gnome-initial-setup us stored in <pre> libgnome-desktop/default-input-sources.h </pre> Currently there is the following default input method for zh_HK locale: <pre> static DefaultInputSource default_input_sources[] = { ... { "zh_HK", "ibus", "cangjie" }, ... } </pre> Here, `cangjie` would need to be replaced with `table:cangjie5`. fedora-comps needs to be updated to install `ibus-table-chinese-cangjie` by default. * Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Release engineering: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: == Upgrade/compatibility impact == Nothing should happen when upgrading from a previous version of Fedora. If a user used ibus-cangjie before the upgrade, they will still use it after the upgrade. This change proposal only changes the default input method for zh_HK locale for new installs or new user accounts. == How To Test == Do a new installation of Fedora 30 in zh_HK (Chinese Hongkont) locale. The package `ibus-table-chinese-cangjie` should be installed. Log into Gnome. See what input method is suggested by default by gnome-initial-setup. == User Experience == Less buggy and better maintained cangjie input method. == Dependencies == gnome-initial-setup == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: Leave the default input methods as they are now and move the change to Fedora 37 * Contingency deadline: Fedora 36 Beta release * Blocks release? No. == Documentation == N/A (not a System Wide Change) -- Ben Cotton He / Him / His Fedora Program Manager Red Hat TZ=America/Indiana/Indianapolis _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
