Request to add ibus-unikey (Vietnamese Input method engine) to language-support-input-vi

Asked by Lê Kiến Trúc

Dear Ubuntu MOTU Developers ,

 I'm a member of Mandatory Opensource Software Translation project for Vietnamese and a moderator of Ubuntu-VN community.

 As far I know that the language-support-input-vi provide scim-m17n which support Vietnamese input method. But In karmic and lucid this package didn't come up with any input method for Vietnamese yet.

 Ubuntu-VN community has recently developed an input method for scim and ibus from the most popular open-source Vietnamese input method engine for Windows ( http://unikey.org ).
Scim-unikey and ibus-unikey are stable now, they have been used by many Vietnamese users.
So I think It is good enough to replace scim-m17n for Vietnamese input method because they are smart and have many feature than m17n.
 Could you please move ibus-unikey and scim-unikey to main repository and add it to language-support-input-vi? We could easily to help Vietnamese Ubuntu user because it will be default when user install Vietnamese language.

Sincerely,

http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/language-support-input-vi

The scim-unikey and ibus-unikey package has been recently imported to universe repository from debian.
