The scim daemon will write back the config file to the disk when exit. However, in some cases the scim daemon exists before the writing is finished. It leads to the empty config file so all the settings are lost. In general it should be very rare but it depends on how the desktop environment system stops the scim daemon. We will try to avoid or mitigate the problem. Thanks again for the bug report. Thanks, Tz-Huan
