Actually the previous test builds in experimental were not successful: even with clean installation, the (ibus-)libpinyin instance does not seem to be properly generating local user dictionary. So I guess we will not make this migration without further investigation. I am also wondering about Ubuntu's plan on libdb removal, though I guess Ubuntu may keep it forever due to needs from commercial side. Thanks, Boyuan Yang
