I was expecting response on my initial message
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=715180#5
which goes more than just bug.  I was a bit confused since someone
uploaded package (now I know it was you.  I had some confusion on the
recent dm upload protocol.  Excuse me.)

Well it is package transition from ibus 1.4 to ibus 1.5.

If you have subscribed to pkg-ime group and host source at Alioth:
  http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/IMEPackagingTeam
we can communicate better on this kind of issue.  It was tried during
the pre-wheezy release but it did not go well.  So we are doing it now.
Now with GNOME3.8 (experimental), ibus 1.5 works nicely.

No ... I was going to make changes for ibus1.5 and change package in
line with others: team maintained.

| Source: ibus-array
| Section: utils
| Priority: optional
| Maintainer: IME Packaging Team <pkg-ime-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org>
| Uploaders: Keng-Yu Lin <kengyu at lexical.tw>, Osamu Aoki <osamu at debian.org>
| ...

My thought on upload was to experimental if needed.

(Maybe just binary rebuild is all needed.  I need to lean the recent
protocol on this transition thing.  Now it is more coordinated than
before.)

Now that I am happy to hear you active, can you consider joining pkg-ime
group and host source at alioth like many other packages using Git.

If you want me to push initial git repo, I can do that.
