That is a reason why I had to modify 8.3.1's +XIM > patch for 8.3.2. OK, that means something changed in RedHat between 6 and 7 that somehow affects the X Input Methods stuff. Perhaps the XFree86 bumping? Change of headers? Unfortunately, I don't have a RH7 install yet, but I'm cc'ing a couple RedHat guys to see if this rings a bell. > And, locale patch for ja_JP.eucJP is required, since ja_JP.ujis is no more > available on RedHat Linux 7J. This is the eucJP -> euc-jp tclUnixInit.c mapping, or the locale patch that was made for 8.3.2 already? > Generally, ja_JP.eucJP is recommended name of locale when we use EUC-JP, not > ja_JP.ujis. > Both ja_JP.ujis and ja_JP.eucJP are the same meaning of locale as EUC-JP, but > most of Japanese locale on Linux are defined by ja_JP.eucJP.
