Public bug reported: Hi All. After a regular update my wine hangs (freezes) when ever I try to start a program. Even winecfg never returns. It seems the problem is related to scim in libx11 and the following thread on the forums describes a patch from freedesktop.org. http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=306635&highlight=wine+Failed+to+open+the+service+control+manager.
I'm running Ubuntu Edgy Wine: 0.9.30-0ubuntu2~edgy1 libx11: 2:1.0.3-0ubuntu4 The thread also traces the problem to the following report on winehq: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6547 Any further assistance would be appreciated.
