Bug Description

opencc is a tool for conversion between traditional and simplified Chinese. In Debian ibus-libpinyin with opencc support has been in testing since the year end, and no bugs have been reported as a result of that.

On the Ubuntu side we had to disable opencc support, since the required additional dependencies - libopencc1.1, libopencc-data and libmarisa0 - were in universe.

libopencc1.1 and libopencc-data have since been promoted to main (bug #1909665), and as regards libmarisa0 it has been cleared for main promoting by both the MIR team and the security team (bug #1914808).

Accordingly I'm asking the release team for permission to enable opencc support in Ubuntu hirsute too.

I think we should wait until next cycle for this change. It's unfortunate because the delays aren't Gunnar's fault (mainly waiting for the MIR), but now we don't have much time to find any bugs - if there are any - before the release, and we don't have people on hand skilled in the stack that

Given that there isn't a pressing driver or a known super compelling feature that requires this to be in *this* release, it's safer to wait.

Please feel free to get this uploaded at the start of the 21.10 cycle. Cheers!
