Description of problem: KDE applications used to crash when SCIM is activated. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): scim-1.4.4-9.1.fc5 (updated) qt-3.3.5-13 (shipped with distro) scim-qtimm-0.9.4-2.1.1 (shipped with distro) scim-1.4.4-9 (shipped with distro) How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 0. Start any kde application .e.g kedit 1. Activate context menu, on text field component in any KDE application (e.g. kedit) 2. From the "Select Input Method" menu in context menu, select "scim". 3. On selecting scim, the appication crashes producing the following message on stderr. Actual results: Application crashes and produces following dump on stderr output stream. -- begin dump -- kedit: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/qt-3.3/plugins/inputmethods/libqscim.so: undefined symbol: _ZN4scim24scim_get_locale_languageERKSs -- end dump -- Expected results: Application should run fine, with scim selected.

That is correct currently scim-qtimm in fc5 does not work because it is not built with libstdc++so7 (see bug 182177). Which is why QT_IM_MODULE is set to xim and not scim in FC5. This should be fixed in FC6. You may prefer to remove scim-qtimm for now, or leave it around pending a later fix. I'm tempted to close this as a duplication for now of the above bug, but I'll leave it open for now to track this issue for FC5.
