I have tried to fix the scim-gtk-immodule upstream but although the x11 window issue is addressed there are still other problems. It seems that it is impossible to get the global coordinates for a widget in wayland so it is difficult to place the "candidate window" alongside with the input cursor in the correct position. I am investigating it and hope that I can find a way to address it soon. Thanks, Tz-Huan
