Yes, connected to Internet, selecting it, those packages almost always
do NOT install. I will file bug rep.

Thank you for noting gcin's pref. In your note, please remember:
1. gcin may get used a lot more in the future
2. I may write an install script for gcin myself, currently it's a
painful two-time login headache.
3. Native in the options would be nice, even if not default.
4. I hypothesize being able to use gcin's flow (ported to another is ok)
is a deal-breaker/deal-maker. With it, Taiwan could literally saturate
with Ubuntu in 1.5 years and literally make headlines with how fast it
happens. You read my prediction of the Taiwan market here first ;-)
Love you all.

I think you misread. I select Taiwan Chinese on install, but it does
NOT automatically install those extra packages. I agree it should.
But, it doesn't until I go to Language settings.

gcin bug report, I'll look at that. This is what it would be: gcin
worked in 15.10 Unity but hid under the app search fuzz, broke as of
16.04 Unity, still broke; worked in 16.04 GNOME, but GNOME's Chinese
packages completely broke around October and have to install that
long list manually.
There may be flavor specific issues. Anyway, as already said:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcin/+filebug
I'm wearing the "reporter" hat, just passing on what the Taiwanese
tell me. Not my opinion. I would vote for fcitx; they don't. It's all
about the speedy, no-looking workflow. gcin, hands-down,
Your hint about some Taiwanese users preferring gcin over Fcitx has
been noted. Making gcin default for typing Traditional Chinese would
be a big change and won't likely happen soon.
