This bug appears to also be present on Testing. Further, after triggering the bug, I can't "log out" of Gnome except by doing a "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"; the log out dialog won't work.
Anyway, in my case I used to have Japanese input working in Emacs, but now it does not. When I use uim-anthy, and set "im-switch -s uim-systray", Emacs will always silently crash on the first run, and the second+ runs it will work but with no Japanese input ("<zenkaku-hankaku> is undefined"). I don't have as detailed info as the parent, but this is what I saw: After starting a new Gnome session: $ ps aux | grep xim 101 2833 0.0 0.0 47944 1040 ? Ss 17:59 0:00 /usr/sbin/exim4 -bd -q30m vultaire 25511 1.2 0.2 87924 5444 ? S 18:58 0:00 /usr/bin/uim-xim vultaire 25877 0.0 0.0 9128 808 pts/0 R+ 18:58 0:00 grep xim Immediately after starting emacs: $ ps aux | grep xim 101 2833 0.0 0.0 47944 1040 ? Ss 17:59 0:00 /usr/sbin/exim4 -bd -q30m vultaire 25511 0.7 0.0 0 0 ? Z 18:58 0:00 [uim-xim] <defunct> vultaire 25936 0.0 0.0 9128 812 pts/0 S+ 18:58 0:00 grep xim And finally, according to /var/log/messages: Jul 25 18:31:25 hydra kernel: [ 1909.506199] uim-xim[15888] general protection ip:7f0cd063f853 sp:7fffda289900 error:0 in libc-2.9.so[7f0cd05cc000+149000] So that's that, basically just confirming the bug and hoping to hear something about this.
