Same error message and exactly the same symptoms as Hans here, on a Karmic Koala. Scim crashed yesterday morning without any reason (apparently last update was 10 days ago, and scim has been used daily since then), and won't launch anymore.
Moving the ~/.scim directory does help a bit : it allows to launch scim again, but I still can't manage to get it working, scim-bridge regularly complains in syslog : ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- scim-bridge: No such IMContext scim-bridge: An invalid char is given at scim_bridge_string_to_uint (): - scim-bridge: Invalid message: Close the connection. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- scim-bridge crahes due to segfault error 4 in libscim-1.0.so.8.2.4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/573103 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
