According to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/scim/+bug/66104, a solution for me is:
1 yum install scim-bridge-gtk package(will install scim-bridge also).
2 set /FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic from false to true.

Hmm this might be fixed in rawhide.

Presumably you mean 1 or 2.

Sorry I didn't make it clear.
The solution for me is simply by 1. whether /FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic is set to false or true doesn't matter(I thought it matters while posting the last comment).

I guess 2 helps with XIM (but would break deadkeys).
