By running ibus-setup from a terminal, I am able to diagnose the origin of this issue with this output: ```Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/ibus-pinyin/setup/main.py", line 31, in <module> from xdg import BaseDirectory ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'xdg' ``` The module 'xdg' has been deprecated in favour of 'xdg-base-dirs'. It would be possible to rewrite the code to use 'xdg-base-dirs', however upstream has simply removed that line of code in this [commit](https://github.com/ibus/ibus-pinyin/commit/616770084991de0f36bea7b5861ef1b1657c9a31#diff-be8f20178455c0f31580ba5c7360a832cc2baf0dab1b6c0cfe5a88525fec94d2) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open "Preferences" for ibus-pinyin from the keyboard layout switcher in GNOME top bar Actual Results: Nothing happens. Expected Results: The preferences window for ibus-pinyin should open. I notice that Debian considers ibus-pinyin deprecated. I’d like some clarification if possible on Fedora’s stance on continuing to maintain the ibus-pinyin package, as the aforementioned commit didn't seem to find its way into the Fedora package, either when it was committed or in the 6 years since then.
