Hi Osamu,

Thanks for the reminder! I haven't dealt with these two bugs earlier due to
the Chinese New Year holiday and I was just back.

As what you said, libcangjie2 is picked due to ABI change, it is basically
rewrite of previous version. For the data package, I think it doesn't
matter much which name to use so I may keep the current one. For
libcangjie2-dev{-tools}, I had given it a second thought as well after
receiving the bug reports. Do you suggest it is better to use the original
libcangjie-dev name instead? If you agree I am happy to make the change.

Thanks,
Anthony
