Canna is a server and I don't want to run unused servers.

You don't need to run it of course. If you don't run canna, the entry "uim-canna" which appears in the scim input method selection menu doesn't work if you select it. But apart from that there is no problem.

There is scim-canna for Canna users, so I want to remove canna from UIM. I know most users choose Anthy for Japanese input, and they don't want to install Canna for UIM.

uim-{pinyin,hangul,viqr} are not well tested. I think they should be covered by uim-m17nlib. You know m17nlib includes pinyin/hangul/viqr engines, and Handa-san (the author of m17nlib) is a cool developer.

But that is the same argument as "disable m17n support in uim because m17n support in scim is better". Usually I try to enable *everything* in the hope to make everybody happy.

I think this one is better for SUSE 10.1: uim-module-manager --register anthy m17nlib skk

I think for SuSE 10.1, I'll split several new sub-packages out of the main uim package: uim-anthy uim-m17n uim-canna If we do it this way, uim-m17n can have uim-module-manager --register m17nlib in the %post script and uim-module-manager --unregister m17nlib in the %postun script. Same for "uim-anthy" and "uim-canna". This will avoid that the main uim package requires m17n and canna. Currently the main uim package requires libcanna.so.1 but not the canna server itself. When uim-canna is a seperate package, it is no problem for uim-canna to require the complete canna server. And the user can choose which modules of uim he wants to install and use. -- Mike FABIAN http://www.suse.de/~mfabian 睡眠不足はいい仕事の敵だ。
