The documentation in the Debian wiki suggests using alternative means for Japanese input specifically with Emacs. https://wiki.debian.org/JapaneseEnvironmentE currently says > emacs has its own unique Japanese input infrastructure (egg etc.) > which does not rely on external programs such as X nor FEP. > > If you wish to input without going through XIM, set XMODIFIERS value > to "none" while starting emacs. From shell, execute as: > $ XMODIFIERS=none emacs I'm not familiar enough with these things to tell whether the information there is current and accurate, but it came up as I was figuring out these things. (I don't think I can solve your problem; I was just figuring out what it would take for someone who - like myself - is unfamiliar with IME etc to repro. Perhaps it would be useful to summarize how your system is configured and what keystrokes and perhaps mouse clicks it requires to correctly input an IPA symbol like ʃ (U+0283) when this bug is fixed.) -- If this were a real .signature, it would suck less. Well, maybe not.
