[Indic Locales][scim] - scim is not working with Indic langs after installation
Last modified: 2008-02-08 03:40:23 EST
IN FC8 Released version scim is behaving strangely for Indic Locale with gtk and openoffice packages. Its not activating with Ctrl+Space button press. And more with that, the IME "RAWCODE" not showing in scim global setup menu. Component Version - scim-1.4.7-7.fc8 scim-bridge-0.4.13-4.fc8 scim-bridge-gtk-0.4.13-4.fc8 scim-libs-1.4.7-7.fc8 scim-m17n-0.2.2-2.fc8 scim-tables-0.5.7-3.fc7 +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #194573 +++ Description of problem: when Installation is finished in Indic Langauge, SCIM is not working with gnome/openoffice application, but working fine with 'kedit/kbabel' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): scim-1.4.4-18 How reproducible: everytime after login with new installation Steps to Reproduce: 1. Fresh install rawhide 2. login in Hindi Desktop 3. gedit 4. Ctrl-SPACE (for scim active) Actual results: nothing happen Expected results: should be able to type in Hindi (any language) Additional info: for all supported Indic locale this is true (bn,gu,hi,mr,ml,or,pa,ta) -- Additional comment from aalam@redhat.com on 2006-06-15 02:14 EST -- *** Bug 195428 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** -- Additional comment from jko@redhat.com on 2006-06-15 22:25 EST -- Ctrl-Space doesn't work in Korean Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): scim-1.4.4-20 -- Additional comment from wtogami@redhat.com on 2006-06-16 10:45 EST -- What version of scim-bridge? -- Additional comment from aalam@redhat.com on 2006-06-16 23:24 EST -- scim-bridge-0.1.12-2 (rawhide on 7th June 2006) -- Additional comment from aalam@redhat.com on 2006-06-16 23:28 EST -- sorry, scim-bridge is not installed for any of these locales (by default installation) -- Additional comment from tagoh@redhat.com on 2006-06-18 22:51 EST -- I've heard from jko that the machine that he used is the same as you used. so it looked like this issue may be caused by the installation failure of scim. probably it needs to be correct first. I mean you need to remove the duplicated scim-libs. see Bug#195633. if you see the scriptlet failed at removing, try it with --noscripts then. -- Additional comment from petersen@redhat.com on 2006-06-19 04:28 EST -- Could you please try again with a fresh install of fc6test1 or later rawhide?
I can not reproduce this problem. Please send $HOME/.xinputrc to me.
Hi Huang Actually for now I am closing this bug as it is a regression test bug and by mistake this bug was cloned from its parent bug #194573. So I am closing this bug now, and reopening the parent bug #194573. So pls follow bug #194573 towards it's fix! I am replying you there in the bug #194573 for your Comment #1. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 194573 ***
I am not sure this is related to 194573. Let's clarify the problem first before duplicating. In reply to comment #0) > IN FC8 Released version scim is behaving strangely for Indic Locale with gtk and > openoffice packages. Its not activating with Ctrl+Space button press. What is your desktop locale/language? Or you using x86_64? Did you try using im-chooser to turn on the Input Method? > the IME "RAWCODE" not showing in scim global setup menu. The rawcode IME was moved to a separate subpackage scim-rawcode. Please install that to get rawcode back.
Hi Jens As far as our conversation is concern, I am replying the queries :- I did a fresh install of FC8 with hi_IN locale in i386 arch. And Rest I shown you how exactly scim behaving. :) Pls ask if anything more required. thanx a lot! :)

Did you pasted all scim packages on this bug? If not, please paste output of `rpm -qa scim\*`.
Closing this for now - please reopen if you have more details and still see a problem.
Satya, just for good measure, I did a fresh F8 install in Hindi now and SCIM works just fine out of the box with gedit, oowriter, and kedit. So I still don't understand what you were seeing.
Hi Jens Ok, thats excellent if it works fine! Please inform in which version of components I have to test it to see it working fine! Please inform!
I tested with F8 final packages (no updates) FWIW. I can provide more details next week.
