Hi, I hope this is the correct package to report the bug against. If not, please re-assign. I can't write this character, encircled in red in the small screenshot, no matter what. Looking through the Unihan database, I was able to at least find it, but it appeared that many glyphs are still missing, and I can probably not write those, either. I have installed about every chinese font I could find, but there are still gaping holes, as the screenshot from the Unihan database shows, the fonts covering something like 30% of all characters for this radical. I have attached two screenshots. I think I've reported such problems before, but can't find my notes about that, nor the corresponding bug report(s). :( Cheers, Toni
I assume you are using fonts-noto-cjk, and unfortunately it doesn't include all Chinese fonts. See https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-han-sans/issues/240

For the fcitx5 support part, I have received comments from fcitx5 upstream developer that there is no intent of supporting those characters in the near future, but it might be supported someday together with all other characters from the same CJK extention plane. For now, I will mark this bug with tag upstream and wontfix. You are welcome to open an issue against upstream fcitx5 project to better track the progress. Best, Boyuan Yang
