So installing the fcitx- googlepinyin I noticed that my Lenovo T490 laptop was
unable to start up. It got stuck on the startup screen and just stayed there.
$sudo apt install fcitx-googlepinyin
To recover my system I had to hardboot (hold powerbutton until shutdown), press
enter to enter menu, f1 to enter BIOs and finally clicking restart without
saving changes, and immediately after holding and pressing shift to enter the
recovery mode. In here I selected recovery mode, the entered shell prompt and
removed the package and my system worked just fine again.
I removed the package using
$sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove fcitx*
I hope this issue can be solved and if not, at least I hope my experience can
help other recover.
