Public bug reported: Dear Ubuntu maintainers,
I, Boyuan Yang, am one of the package maintainers of ibus-libpinyin in Debian and made the last 2 package uploads. Recently there is a private bug report stating that ibus-libpinyin/1.11.1-1 has a bug in the .desktop files which made the configuration of ibus-libpinyin largely unusable. Details are as follows: Within ibus-libpinyin_1.11.1-1_amd64.deb or similar .deb files, the following files are provided: -rw-r--r-- root/root 528 2019-12-07 18:43 ./usr/share/applications/ibus-setup-libbopomofo.desktop -rw-r--r-- root/root 528 2019-12-07 18:43 ./usr/share/applications/ibus-setup-libpinyin.desktop Their contents are identical, which is not correct. The content of ibus-setup-libpinyin.desktop was wrongly set to be the same as ibus-setup-libpomofo.desktop. This did not happen in previous versions thus it is a regression. I have prepared a minimal bugfix in Debian, versioned 1.11.1-2, to fix this bug. It actually cherry-picked upstream bugfix commits. The full debdiff is provided in the attachment. You may also retrieve the package directly from Debian archive. As a result, I am requesting a freeze exception in Ubuntu. If Ubuntu can unfreeze this package and import the current bugfix from Debian, I believe this bug can be fixed correctly. This is the first time for me to work with Ubuntu as a Debian Developer. Please let me know if more work is needed during this cooperation of bugfix.
