Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: scim

I run Ubuntu 7.10

My scim packages:

$ dpkg-query -W "*scim*" | gawk '$2 {print;}'
libscim8c2a     1.4.7-1ubuntu2
scim    1.4.7-1ubuntu2
scim-bridge     0.4.10-0ubuntu1
scim-bridge-agent       0.4.12-1
scim-bridge-client-gtk  0.4.12-1
scim-chewing    0.3.1-2ubuntu2
scim-gtk2-immodule      1.4.7-1ubuntu2
scim-m17n       0.2.2-1
scim-modules-socket     1.4.7-1ubuntu2
scim-modules-table      0.5.7-1ubuntu2
scim-pinyin     0.5.91-0ubuntu12
scim-qtimm      0.9.4-2ubuntu2
scim-tables-additional  0.5.7-1ubuntu2
scim-tables-zh  0.5.7-1ubuntu2

Normal behavior of the toolbar:

1. Hitting Ctrl-Alt-Space (which is the scim toggle on  my system)
normally switches between my current scim input method and unprocessed
keyboard input.  When the input is not processed by scim, the toolbar
does not appear at all on screen.  The toolbar is present on screen only
when scim is processing the input.

2. Hitting Ctrl-Alt-RightArrow brings up scim's menu of all available
input methods.

I can work for hours and even days with scim showing the above behavior,
then suddenly it gets into an abnormal mode.  I do not know why it
switches to this abnormal behavior.  Abnormal behavior of the toolbar:

1. Hitting Ctrl-Alt-Space does not make the toolbar appear or disappear.
The toolbar is always present.  The only thing which changes is that
scim toggles between whatever input method I'm using and the
"English/Keyboard" input method.

2. Hitting Ctrl-Alt-RightArrow no longer brings up scim's menu of all
input methods.  I know that all the methods are still loaded because if
I hit Ctrl-Alt-UpArrow and Ctrl-Alt-DownArrow scim goes through its list
of methods.  I just can't get a menu.

Reloading the configuration does not help.   The only way I can get
around this is by killing all scim processes and restarting scim.
