Public bug reported:

Ubuntu version: edgy
openoffice.org version: 2.0.4-0ubuntu4 (edgy updates)
scim version: 1.4.4-4ubuntu6 (edgy)
language pack: zh_TW (probably irrelevant)

When I try to start openoffice, the splash screen shows and disappears
after 2-3 seconds. This situation is always reproducible on my laptop.

The output of openoffice is:
$ openoffice 

** (process:9893): WARNING **: Unknown error forking main binary /
abnormal early exit ...

The problem goes away if scim-bridge is configured.
(set GTK_IME_MODULE="scim-bridge" in /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/zh_TW)

     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
