You have been subscribed to a public bug: Now scim in dapper has im-switch support, and ubuntu-desktop will install im-switch and scim by default, it should be much easier for ordinary users to set up scim. However according to bug #35990, users with locale other than zh*, ja*, ko*, and en_US.UTF-8 will have problem with the XIM mode.
Therefore, scim's im-switch configuration for XIM mode should check /etc/scim/global and ~/.scim/global for the "SupportedUnicodeLocales" setting, and warn the user if his/her locale is not specified. ** Affects: im-switch (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Status: Incomplete ** Affects: scim (Debian) Importance: Unknown Status: Confirmed -- scim: im-switch configuration for XIM mode should check user's locale https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to im-switch in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
