[Bug 1312517] Re: scim-m17n not working in Ubuntu 14.04

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

Hi Swarup,

Good to hear that it worked.

Hopefully the fix will finally make it to the 14.04 archive. In the
meantime I'll keep the rebuild in my PPA, so those affected can download
it from there.

Title:
  scim-m17n not working in Ubuntu 14.04

Status in “scim-m17n” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  After installing the scim-m17n software, the languages are not
  available for use in scim. Even after activating scim, only English is
  available. All the Asian and other non-European languages which become
  availalbe through m17n, are remain unlisted. Of note, in a comment on
  this site [http://askubuntu.com/questions/165980/scim-input-method-
  not-working/454912#454912], Robert Siemer writes: "I could fix scim-
  m17n by moving m17n.so from /usr/lib/scim-1.0/1.4.0/IMEngine/ to
  /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/scim-1.0/1.4.0/IMEngine/". However I tried
  this, and it doesn't seem to have made any difference.

  It should be added that for many writers of Asian languages, this
  scim-m17n is critically important to their work. I am one of those;
  for many years I have been typing using this system, and there is no
  viable alternative. The Ibus system does not provide for proper
  formatting of what is typed. So it is vitally important that this
  scim-m17n be made to work in 14.04. - Swarup
