Package: scim Version: 1.4.9-6 Severity: grave Tags: l10n Justification: renders package unusable
I installed scim to do Chinese input. As well as scim and its dependencies, I installed scim-pinyin and scim-tables-zh and their dependencies. I ran the SCIM setup utility. The trigger is ctrl-space. The input method "Chinese simplified" is enabled. Smart pinyin is enabled. I restarted X by logging out and in again and started the scim daemon by scim -d. I then expect to be able to switch into the scim input mode by typing ctrl- space. But when I do that, nothing happens. Nothing. It just plain does not work. Presumably there is some inadequately documented procedure which has to be followed to get scim to respond. The solution to this bug is probably to fix the documentation. Though it would be nice if scim could notice when it is being activated in a completely useless mode such that it will never do anything, and tell the user. -- Package-specific info: Related packages: ii libscim8c2a 1.4.9-6 library for SCIM platform ii scim 1.4.9-6 smart common input method platform ii scim-bridge-ag 0.4.16-2+b1 IME server of scim-bridge communicate with S ii scim-bridge-cl 0.4.16-2+b1 IME server of scim-bridge communicate with S ii scim-gtk2-immo 1.4.9-6 GTK+2 input method module with SCIM as backe ii scim-modules-s 1.4.9-6 socket modules for SCIM platform ii scim-modules-t 0.5.9-1 generic tables IM engine module for SCIM pla ii scim-pinyin 0.5.91-2 smart pinyin IM engine for SCIM platform ii scim-tables-zh 0.5.9-1 Chinese input method data tables for SCIM pl Related environment variables: $XMODIFIERS= $GTK_IM_MODULE= $QT_IM_MODULE= Installed SCIM components: /usr/lib/scim-1.0: 1.4.0 scim-helper-launcher scim-helper-manager scim-launcher scim-panel-gtk /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0: Config Filter FrontEnd Helper IMEngine SetupUI /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/Config: simple.so socket.so /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/Filter: sctc.so /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/FrontEnd: socket.so x11.so /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/Helper: setup.so /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/IMEngine: pinyin.so rawcode.so socket.so table.so /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/SetupUI: aaa-frontend-setup.so aaa-imengine-setup.so panel-gtk-setup.so pinyin-imengine-setup.so table-imengine-setup.so -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages scim depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.8.10-6 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.4.2-2.1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-8 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.2-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.3-1+squeeze2 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libscim8c2a 1.4.9-6 library for SCIM platform ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library Versions of packages scim recommends: ii im-switch 1.20 Input method switch framework ii scim-bridge-agent 0.4.16-2+b1 IME server of scim-bridge communic ii scim-gtk2-immodule 1.4.9-6 GTK+2 input method module with SCI Versions of packages scim suggests: pn scim-anthy <none> (no description available) pn scim-canna <none> (no description available) pn scim-chewing <none> (no description available) pn scim-hangul <none> (no description available) pn scim-m17n <none> (no description available) ii scim-pinyin 0.5.91-2 smart pinyin IM engine for SCIM pl pn scim-prime <none> (no description available) pn scim-skk <none> (no description available) pn scim-tables-additional <none> (no description available) pn scim-tables-ja <none> (no description available) pn scim-tables-ko <none> (no description available) ii scim-tables-zh 0.5.9-1 Chinese input method data tables f pn scim-thai <none> (no description available) pn scim-uim <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
