scim (1.4.7-2) unstable; urgency=low
Since 1.4.5, upstream has changed the default setting (in /etc/scim/config)
of /FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic from "true" to "false". This change is to make the
"deadkeys" on many European keyboards working correctly with SCIM.
However, in XIM mode, this setting causes problems for some GTK+ programs,
most notable nautilus. Sometimes, the keyboard input in the program will
completely freeze, and nothing you type will show up. As a temporary
workaround, you can choose a different input method other than "X Input
Method" in the "Input Methods" list from the right-click menu ("Default"
should usually work).
As the existent user configurations are kept after upgrade, this change
should only affect new users or new installs. If you don't have deadkeys on
your keyboard and want to keep using XIM mode, you can change the setting of
/FrontEnd/X11/Dynamic in /etc/scim/config file (system configuration) or
$(HOME)/.scim/config file (per-user configuration) back to "true" (make sure
scim is not running when editing $(HOME)/.scim/config). Alternatively, you
can choose a different input method mode other than XIM, such as using the
scim-immodule configuration for im-switch provided by scim package (you need
scim-gtk2-immodule package installed to use this configuration). Read
/usr/share/doc/scim/README.GTK for more information about choosing from
different input method modes.

scim (1.4.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
Since scim 1.4.3, upstream has changed in which locales GTK+ will prefer
scim as the IM module, from "*" (every locale) to "" (no locale). This
means if environment variable GTK_IM_MODULE is not set, GTK+ applications
will no longer use scim as its IM module by default (the default module will
depend on your locale and other installed input methods). So if you have
been relying on this behavior, your input method in GTK+ applications will
stop working after scim upgrade. To use scim as the GTK input method, make
sure you have set GTK_IM_MODULE to scim. Please read README.GTK in
/usr/share/doc/scim/ for more details.

scim (1.4.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
After upgrading from scim 1.0 to 1.4, you need to restart scim to have
it working properly. The simple way to restart scim is just
restarting X. Also the settings in ~/.scim for 1.0 may be
incompatible with 1.4, so if you encounter strange behaviour after
upgrading, move ~/.scim out of the way and try again.
New scim 1.4 packages are not compatible with old IMEngines compiled
against scim 1.0. The new scim 1.4.1-1 package should conflict with
all old scim 1.0 packages, but if you are using unofficial IMEngines,
you need to install libscim-dev and recompile.
Debian is having a C++ ABI transition, and new scim 1.4 packages are
compiled with g++ 4.0. This may cause prolem if you are using third
party softwares that are compiled with g++ 3.3 (or even some Debian
packages that hasn't finished the transition yet), especially if you
are using the GTK IM module for scim. A workaround would be using XIM
by setting GTK_IM_MODULE to xim. Please read the documentation in
/usr/share/doc/scim/README.Debian.gz for details.
