Did you read README.Debian.gz for SCIM. How do you expect me to know default locale? GDM can switch it every start of X Window. From PAM? .... Too much guessing is bad. > Once I edit /etc/scim/global manually it works as expected. I think > im-switch should do this automatically That is what I expect users to do. SCIM upstream likes to keep this default. (I wish I can set default to /SupportedUnicodeLocales = *_*.UTF-8) Since user may be switching locale, I am not so keen to automatically adding such thing. It is well documented in /u/s/d/scim/README.Debian.gz. I do not want to make im-switch to be any more complicated. Osamu FYI: If we add such featutue, it is done in scim package. Not in im-switch. im-switch calls hook script provided by scim. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
