Feature changed by: Vincent Untz (vuntz) Feature #308892, revision 4 Title: Replace scim with IBUS openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important + openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed + Priority + Requester: Important Requested by: Mingxi Wu (mingxi_wu) Description: SCIM upstream is almost dead. We should not keep an unmaintained software in openSUSE. IBUS (http://code.google.com/p/ibus/), a new developed input method is very active and full functionality, and other distributions like Ubuntu (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/desktop-karmic-input-methods) and Fedora already had done this. We have some contributors done the IBUS packaging at OBS https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home:swyear:ibus . Everything is OK on my openSUSE 11.2 box except fail to enable it in a gnomesu window, but this is not a problem as other distributions don't have this bug. Discussion: #1: Rémy Marquis (spyhawk) (2010-03-02 08:32:22) ibus in openSUSE by default would be great. Also, ibus seems to solve many problems that occur with others IME under Linux (such as no dead keys for no-US keyboard), and is far better integrated under KDE4, thanks to kimpanel. I am using the packages of swyear and everything is working without problem. + #2: Vincent Untz (vuntz) (2010-08-24 10:14:31) + We should do this for 11.4. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308892
