It does work for Ukraninian! You just have to use a
suitable keyboard layout:


/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/ua

libm17n has transliteration input method and a keyboard simulation
for Russian:

mfabian@ari:~
$ LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 ls /usr/share/m17n/ru*mim
/usr/share/m17n/ru-kbd.mim       /usr/share/m17n/ru-translit.mim
/usr/share/m17n/ru-phonetic.mim  /usr/share/m17n/ru-yawerty.mim
mfabian@ari:~

But not for Ukrainian:

mfabian@ari:~
$ LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 ls /usr/share/m17n/uk*mim
ls: cannot access /usr/share/m17n/uk*mim: No such file or directory
mfabian@ari:~
$ 

So we cannot offer a transliteration input method for Ukrainian
in ibus-typing-booster.

But using native Keyboard input, Ukrainian works just fine in
ibus-typing-booster.

So this is NOTABUG in ibus-typing-booster.
