python-ibus package missing in Ubuntu 15.04

Asked by Maznislav on 2015-06-23

The package is available in the previous releases but in 15.04 it is missing, could you please tell me if this is a temporary miss or the package is deprecated ?

Thank you.

Please read this first:

I quote " 20. By Sebastien Bacher on 2014-08-29

    debian/control: use python-gi rather than deprecated python-ibus
"

Then compare this

http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=python-ibus&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all

with this

http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=+python-gi&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all

My conclusion is that python-ibus has been replaced by python-gi in Ubuntu 15.04 and that python-ibus is deprecated in any Ubuntu version higher than 14.04 LTS.

Can you help with this problem?
