    ibus-table >= 1.8.x has many improvements over 1.5.x
    • The database format is simplified which makes better matching
      possible. But because of the changed database format, the
      tables have to be rebuilt, i.e. packages like ibus-table-chinese
      and ibus-table-others have to be rebuilt against  ibus-table > 1.8.0.
    • Wildcard support added, wildcards like ? for single characters or *
      for many characters can be used. The wildcards can be configured
      in the setup tool, for example one can also use 'z' as a single character
      wildcard if desired.
    • Setup tool improved, several new options added, works with Gnome3 now.
    • Prompt characters are supported now, for example when using Cangjie,
      日, 月, 金, ... are displayed while typing instead of a, b, c, ...
    • Moving around in the preëdit works correctly now. One can commit
      the current candidate to preëdit with the left shift key or with
      the arrow keys, commit more characters to preëdit that way, then
      move around in the preëdit and see the full key sequences of the
      characters in the preëdit. This way one can check the
      key sequences if one used wildcards or pinyin mode to enter the
      characters.
    • Fix many bugs.
