Hello Debian X Task Force, This bug was reported in Ubuntu and Debian, and I can confirm that it happens in unstable. Fedora developers claim it's an libX11 bug [1] and reported it upstream [2], but didn't get any response from upstream. Still, Fedora seems to have applied their own patch to libX11. 1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=201284 2. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7869 Now a Debian user also confirms that the patch from Fedora fixes the problems in scim. As I don't know anything about the XIM support in libx11 at all, I'll have to ask the X maintainers to look at this bug. Please read the comments in bug #434180 [3] for the whole story (and more links). 3. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=434180 If you need any help to reproduce this bug (it requires some specific settings in scim, which I hope is clear enough in bug #434180, as well as scim's documentation in /usr/share/doc/scim/), please don't hesitate to ask me. Thanks in advance, Ming 2007.08.12
