@ftake

Can you please explain why python3-ibus was dropped? I read the changelog, but I didn't understand the "upstream will not maintain it for python 3" sentence. if so, why upstream still accept my ibus-force-python3.patch?

As we know, openSUSE is disgarding python 2.x, and that's why @qzhao dropped ibus-sunpinyin and ibus-googlepinyin from openSUSE:Factory. If ibus upstream "will not maintain it for python3", then python-ibus will be dropped soon because the engines require it have been dropped.

@qzhao actually I tested the python3-ibus in Leap 15.0, after patching "import gobject" further, it's usable. I also tested ibus-sunpinyin (because I think it's still been using by our users), it worked well with python3-ibus and python3-gobject2 without any modification since it's really a small setup program.

So I think here's the thing:

ftake and qzhao are different in view. qzhao wanted to follow our python 2.x removal progress while ftake wanted to keep python-ibus as it is.

both have troubles for now. for ftake, python-ibus will be dropped anyway. for qzhao, you didn't test if some engines are portable...

Greetings

@MargueriteSu

At the previous update, I specified a new flag --disable-python2 introduced by the upstream. Then, that flag removes what we have called python3-ibus.

Now Python application can communicate by using IBus gobject introspection without python3-ibus. So only legacy application, which is/was written in Python 2, might be using that library.

So I asked "Do we still need python3-ibus?" before submitting the previous update. ibus-sunpinyin still requires python3-ibus? Is it possible to remove that dependency by patching to ibus-sunpinyin?

Sorry, I just asked do we still need python(2)-ibus.

About "ibus-force-python3.patch", "--disable-python2" allow us to build ibus without python2. And the patch was not merged as it is, implemented different way.

Sorry, could you please show me the discussion record of my opinion? My memory of the context was a little hazy.
