Bug#903621: ibus-rime: cannot enter Chinese after switching from Russian

[Michael Tsang <miklcct@gmail.com>]

Package: ibus-rime
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n

Dear Maintainer,

I have multiple input methods installed in my ibus, including English, Russian
and Swedish and rime. I've added rime input methods which input Chinese by
using Pinyin in Latin alphabet.

If I switch from English to rime, it behaves as expected. However, if I switch
from Russian to rime, when I press the keyboard, Russian characters appears
with no compose window from rime. Because the input method selected in rime
uses Latin alphabet, I expect Latin characters come out and compose Chinese.
