Then we should remove uim-anthy/uim-canna/uim-skk (or uim itself),
because scim supports anthy/canna/skk.

We can remove scim-uim for Japanese, then UIM packages will be optional.
Beginners will not be confused.
(Mandriva's uim packages support m17nlib.)

I think scim-anthy and scim-uim-anthy will confuse beginners.
scim-anthy is good enough for most users.

Run uim-pref-gtk and change some settings please.
It will make ~/.uim.d/.

SUSE 10.0 beta2 didn't install scim-anthy for Japanese.
(Is it my mistake ?)

Thanks.
