Be aware that if you are going to use Debian or Ubuntu there have been
issues with SCIM; see:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SCIM

This has also plagued OSS packages that are compiled with an
incompatible gcc version:

    * Mozilla Firefox binary tarball from [WWW] Mozilla.org
    * OpenOffice.org 2.x binary packages from the official [WWW]
OpenOffice.org homepage (RPM convert to DEB by alien).
            Note: In the case of OpenOffice.org, it won't crash like
other programs mentioned. But SCIM will be disabled when using this
official Linux version.

I've not looked further, but that indicates to me that SCIM is possibly
broken in Ubuntu linux.
