Description of problem: scim does not load when system language is en_US. The user cannot access the scim keyboard icon on the Gnome panel bar at the top. Consequently, the user cannot do input in other languages; only tested for Japanese (scim-anthy) with Gnome desktop. The reason that scim does load is because the file: /etc/X11/xinit/xinputrc is never sourced on line 36 of file: /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/xinput.sh If the the token "en" is added to the hardcoded string on line 33 of this same file, scim loads every time "X" is started. See line 33 of attached file. I am not sure if this is the best way to fix the problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Smart Common Input Method platform 1.4.5 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:

Could you attach a diff patch instead please.
Nevermind this intentional. You can turn on SCIM for en with im-chooser, but you need to override with Custom -> SCIM. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 243563 ***
