No, you are right. I was indeed under the impression that iscan did NOT work for you. Sorry about the misunderstanding. > To recap.

It appears I'm not the only one with this issue.

I think the problem is with libkscan (perhaps indirectly because Scim is also bleating). > Another curious thing: on SUSE 9.3 I see no libkscan...is this a clue? As a package?
