Description Jack Chen 2012-08-28 04:14:44 UTC

The current stable dev-libs/libchewing-0.3.2 contains a bug, which affects programs depending on it.  On app-i18n/ibus-chewing, it causes phonetic symbols not showing while typing, which can probably be considered severe.

This problem was fixed in dev-libs/libchewing-0.3.2-r1 as a patch, and fixed upstream in dev-libs/libchewing-0.3.3.

Thus, I suggest either:
   1. drop dev-libs/libchewing-0.3.2 keyword to ~arch
or 2. stabilize dev-libs/libchewing-0.3.3
or 3. make >=dev-libs/libchewing-0.3.3 a dependency of related packages (eg. app-i18n/ibus-chewing)
