Description Petr Pisar 2015-07-29 08:10:18 UTC 
With GTK_IM_MODULE=scim, gtk3 applications crash. For example Firefox. Or simple gtk3-demo from gtk3-devel package:

(1) Run gtk3-demo.
(2) Execute "Dialog and Message Boxes" demo by double-clicking on the label in the left panel.
(3) Focus an entry box by clicking in the "Entry 1" entry box in the Dialogs window.

The gtk3-demo crashes here. It happens with scim-1.4.15-1.fc22.x86_64 and gtk3-3.16.6-1.fc22.x86_64.

This was reported to upstream as <https://github.com/scim-im/scim/issues/5>. 


Also updating GTK3 IM modules when updating gtk3 package leads to this error message:

Cannot load module /usr/lib64/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/immodules/im-scim.so: /usr/lib64/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/immodules/im-scim.so: undefined symbol: gdk_x11_drawable_get_xdisplay
/usr/lib64/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/immodules/im-scim.so does not export GTK+ IM module API: /usr/lib64/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/immodules/im-scim.so: undefined symbol: gdk_x11_drawable_get_xdisplay

This was reported to upstream as <https://github.com/scim-im/scim/issues/4>.

Both upstream bug reports claim this upstream commit fixes it:

I can confirm the patch fixes it for me.
