This -x check was prudent one but breaks one liner command as given

after sed, "..." does not need to be lead by \ as \"...\" since they are in
$(...)
This kind of ugly code is prone for such bug.

I just wanted to fit it there but it turned out it was not worth it in
the second thought.

I thought so initially.
This is my current thought:
im-switch was designed to be a common infrastructure for many ime.
It meant to configure just by setting parameters in the configuratuib
file. Then the common script should take care the rest.
I thought this defunct process was caused by appending & to the command
which itself was able to daemonize itself. As I checked it was there
anyway. (& was always added with normal use of im-switch)
So this VINE linux trick of checking scim-launcher is for other case
when scim is started before this section.
Since these im-switch configuration are sourced as shell code, I have
changed as below:
XIM=SCIM
if [ -z "$(/bin/pidof scim-launcher|xargs -n1 ps --no-headers -o user,pid --pid
2>/dev/null|sed -n "s/^${USER} *\([1-9][0-9]*\)$/\1/p")" ] ; then
/usr/bin/scim -d >/dev/null 2>/dev/null
fi
XIM_PROGRAM=""
XIM_ARGS=""
GTK_IM_MODULE=xim
QT_IM_MODULE=xim
DEPENDS="scim,scim-anthy|scim-canna|scim-chewing|scim-pinyin|scim-hangle|scim-prime|scim-skk|scim-tables-additional|scim-m17n|scim-uim|scim-tables-ja|scim-tables-ko|scim-tables-zh"
This did not change situation for scim having [scim] <defunct>.
I realy do not know under what condition this checking of scim-launcher
is needed.
