I do not understand "some arguments happened".  Who was involved?
gcin upstream? HIME upstream, QA team, previous gcin maintainer?

I did not even realize "Hime (姫) is the Japanese word for princess."

It is unfortunate result of GTK decision to use the same environment
variable to enable GTK immdule for GTK2 and GTK3.  If they had chosen
the similar choice like Qt4, I did not need to do this.

If one exists but not the other one, then you enable GTK immdule
without supporting immdule.   Since we do not expect GTK2 apps to be
purged for wheezy (unlike Qt3), I should not create situation with
likely breakage.  People can override it by manual configuration
but default should serve most people without much tweaking.  Whoever
install these system, the added space for additional package is small.
We are talking desktop even for LXDE.

I am rephrasing these now.  So I will make it consistent.

One big question is the order of these IMs.

Currently
 20 ibus
 22 fcitx
 24 uim
 48 scim     missing Qt4 support etc. (Well there is via bridge ...)
 50 gcin     it was Chinese only but now I know it has some anthy usage.
 ...

If gcin maintainer asks with explanation, I think I need to move gcin
between uim and scim.

Question is where should HIME should go in this order.

(I am thinking 26, it is still new but there is someone caring it.  gcin
should be 28 if new maintainer asks.)

As for your ITP, package description needs to be revised.  This is
substandard.  You have to provide proper short and long description.

 
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/best-pkging-practices#bpp-desc-basics

“If you are having problems writing your description, you may wish to
send it along to <debian-l10n-engl...@lists.debian.org> and request
feedback.”

Also, you need to explain upstream situation and difference to me
separately so I have better understandings.

Once you finish all these, let me know.  I will update package.
