ibus is listed in RDEPEND, but vscode really can run with fcitx. ibus is not a hard requirement.
Since 1.83.0-r1 https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=8be7f9a0d135c06b695821abcef0b5990cdbd736 https://bugs.gentoo.org/859406#c20
From point of cjk team, I suggest removing this ibus dependency. For additional evidence, the ibus dependency for the snap package is added by this commit: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/commit/b2a1932329332814312f9f1623fa34ceb53da48d The line below in the modified file, suggests vscode at least supports both ibus and fcitx. https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/blob/main/resources/linux/snap/electron-launch#L248 Also, that dependency is imposed by arbitalily setting GTK_IM_MODULE_FILE in "resources/linux/snap/electron-launch", which should be a file for executing vscode within a snap environment. So, that is a dependency for the snap package, but, I believe, is not a dependency for vscode itself.
Thanks @naota for chiming in. So you suggest removing the explicit on `ibus` and `fcitx5` altogether ?
