Cyrillic mongolian input method for Ibus

I made a packet ibus-table-mongolian or Maral (Марал), cyrillique mongolian input method for ibus for ArchLinux (tested on ARM with ArchLinuxARM and x86_64 (with Antergos) in fact in “any”), but I obtain something strange. I will probably have to make a bug report.

Keyboard in this method should be disposition independant, it should be only based on US keyboard and don’t adapt to local keyboard, because the phonetic disposition is totally unrelated to latin caracter phonetic disposition. Mongolian keyboard strangly works perfectly with on ARM architecture, but adapt on locale keyboard on x86_64. The same problem appear on Ubuntu 14.04 for x86_64 that uses a really older version.

The defaut configuration file by author, Ochko, use the former ibus-table 1.3 version :

KEYBOARD_LAYOUT = US_Default

On more recent version, this should be :

LAYOUT = us

I trie both definitions, and each time, I have the same difference between ARM et x86_64. I suppose this is a subtile problem like related to Endianess or something like that ça, but I don’t understand why for? You can still use default linux mongolian keyboard that works perfectly fine, but change between method is not smooth like with ibus.

Update of some archlinuxARM packages

As Entangle version 0.7.0, tool to remote control DSLR and 0AD a18 (a free software realtime strategy game), I updated those packest for ArchlinuxARM.
