Description Eugene Teo (Security Response) 2007-05-29 05:04:51 UTC
Description of problem:
When I left-click the scim panel applet, nothing appears. I can't configure it
nor select the input method. The SCIM Input Method Setup: FrontEnd: Global Setup
screen looks wrong. The hotkeys are not listed, and I suspect that could be the
problem why it didn't work for me in the first place.

When I try to run a scim-aware app, i.e. pidgin, ctrl+space has no effect. Not
even when I run "GTK_IM_MODULE=scim-bridge gedit".

This is a fresh rawhide install since this morning. I did not do any
configurations on scim, except to run it automatically using gnome-sessions when
I start logging in. I compared the list of rpms with cchance, and we have got
matching rpm versions. It worked previously, with an earlier version of rawhide.

In im-chooser, I also selected "Use custom input method: scim", and have also
restarted my desktop.

[eteo@kerndev ~]$ rpm -qa | grep scim

or

fixing first in scim-1.4.6-2.fc8

Comment 4 Jens Petersen 2007-05-30 04:26:07 UTC
I tagged scim-1_4_5-19_fc7 in cvs, but unable to build currently in koji.

Comment 5 Jens Petersen 2007-05-30 23:02:12 UTC
Improved patch is in scim-1.4.6-3.fc8.

Comment 6 Jens Petersen 2007-06-01 07:01:47 UTC
Package has been submitted to the Updates system.

Comment 7 Fedora Update System 2007-06-04 04:14:54 UTC
scim-1.4.5-20.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 testing repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 8 Jens Petersen 2007-07-24 03:39:54 UTC
This should be fixed by scim-0:1.4.5-21.fc7, but it is probably
necessary to remove "~/.scim/config" for the fix to take effect.
