Hi,

Hmmm...  situation is a bit more complicated than I hoped.

Simply removing --libexec=/usr/lib/$(DEB_BUILD_MULTIARCH)/ibus
was still putting these plug-in in /usr/lib/$(DEB_BUILD_MULTIARCH).

Considering some IME packages did not make them into M-A, this is not
good place.

Since these set-up executables are M-A: foreign components, we should
set this to --libexec=/usr/lib/ibus or --libexec=/usr/lib.

Although both are acceptable per policy, let's do
--libexec=/usr/lib/ibus.

This is because /usr/lib is for general library and /usr/lib/pkg/ was
for plug-in library for pkg.  (I know it is not much argument.  But
cleaner.)
