Package: uim-xim Version: 1:1.2.1-9 Severity: important Dear uim, nautilus and iceweasel maintainers,
I was suffering of iceweasel crashing (#412053) and nautilus refusing the input of tilde characters on the right half of filenames (#422758), and thanks to the sagacity of readers of debian-user-french, I think that found a common denominator: uim-xim. I think that the problem is similar to the following scim bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=348893 Basically, strange things happen when inputting non-ASCII characters through uim-xim, especially symbols and accented characters. I checked the behaviour of Nautilus with japanese characters, and it seems that they trigger the same problem as other non-ascii characters. Surprisingly, out of two machines, the bug only affects fresh Etch installs. I figured out that uim-anthy is not called the same way on both systems (I use im-swich).
