Bug 234804

Fixed in 1.4.1-3.fc7.

Thanks!  Much better now.

Noticed one thing though: with m17n installed, m17n-nil appears
in the menu without an icon and that still crashes gedit for me.

Hmm, ok. it looks like m17n-lib is weird.
m17nlib module for uim just tries to pick input method up through
mdatabase_list() and register the info from minput_open_im(). AFAICS
minput_open_im returns something other than NULL, but the value able to get
through msymbol_name((MInputMethod *)->name) seems to be nil.

Here is the actual result what I can get from m17n-lib:

So the last three seems to be wrong. should we clone this bug for m17n-lib to
keep the above info and close this once because we got a fix for the issue
listing not installed modules?

Yep sounds good.  I filed bug 235331 for the m17n-lib issue.

Hmm noticed one more thing: testing more I then removed m17n-db-latin
and restarted the desktop.  Now I when I start uim again the maps from
m17n-db-latin are still listed in the menu without their icon.
The list of m17n maps seems to be cached in one of the .uim.d/custom/ files,
but even after removing .uim.d/ and restarting the desktop
I still saw them in the menu?

Oh, yes.. and not only that file. similar cache is in installed-modules.scm and
loader.scm as well, which is updated by uim-module-manager.

Can you file a separate bug for that?

issue was fixed (not comment #7),
tested with following version:
uim-1.4.1-3.fc7

due to comment #7, putting it verified
