Hello, Two days ago I had the same problem. Furthermore fcitx rime input crashed in tray area of lxde panel on my laptop.
You can give the unstable branch a try however. I am on stable branch stretch and the unstable release 1.3.2 works for me. (github updated to 1.3.2 only three weeks ago.) https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=sid&keywords=librime-bin <https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=sid&keywords=librime-bin> Package librime-bin sid (unstable) <https://packages.debian.org/sid/librime-bin> (utils): Rime Input Method Engine - utilities 1.3.2+dfsg1-1+b1: alpha amd64 arm64 armel armhf hppa i386 m68k mips mips64el mipsel powerpcspe ppc64 ppc64el s390x sh4 sparc64 x32 1.2.9+dfsg1-1+b2: hurd-i386 1.2.9+dfsg1-1+b1: kfreebsd-amd64 kfreebsd-i386 Regards, Abi
