FWIW, I hope this bug NOT be merged with bug #57081. There are actually three issues here:
1. scim-chewing corrupts user configuration data on some abnormal exits (the main issue of bug #57081, fixed in edgy by new upstream scim- chewing and libchewing). 2. scim-chewing's im-switch setting uses scim-qtimm by default, which breaks in Ubuntu installs with user-installed KDE apps (independent to issue 1, but unfortunately mixed together in bug #57081, also fixed in edgy by changing the im-switch setting in scim-chewing). 3. scim-qtimm breaks scribus, i.e., this bug. This is strictly a scim- qtimm issue, has nothing to do with scim-chewing. -- Qt/SCIM broken (Cannot enter numbers in to spinbox widget) https://launchpad.net/bugs/37711 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
