Kevin,
Sorry for the delay. Too much work piled up.
You can try to start the ibus-varnam process manually from the source
directory. So messages will be printed on to the STDOUT. Please kill the
existing ibus-varnam executable before doing so.
You can also look at the logs
(https://github.com/varnamproject/libvarnam-ibus/blob/master/common/engine-util.c#L33).
I think it gets generated inside ~/.local/config/ibus-varnam.
How are you placed in terms of your availability? Will you be able to
contribute to ibus engine and make it in a releasable shape? I can guide
you. And Balu is willing to package it for Debian. Let me know if you
are available.
