Was changing window managers and discovered that the problem with gnucash
and the scim daemon on my system is specific to the setting of
GTK_IM_MODULE. If it is set to "xim" gnucash editing is broken (arrows,
delete/backspace), if it is set to "scim" then it appears to work fine.
My understanding is that scim is supposed to be able to work with xim (and
it apparently does for my other apps), though I don't recall why I set it
up this way years ago as it does not appear to be necessary for my current
usage. In any case, switching so:
GTK_IM_MODULE="scim"
appears to solve my problem, though the bug is still there, this appears
to make it a non-issue for me. Perhaps this may give some clues to make
it easier to track down the problem.
FWIW.
