Main Inclusion Report for sourcepackage
Requirements
Availability:
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/s/scim, available for all supported architectures
Rationale:
- Input method is required by CJK people. It's a critical issue for them because they can't input their native language without it.
- SCIM supports many laungages via scim-pinyin, scim-hangul, scim-anthy scim-tables, scim-m17n and so on.
- Although there are a few candidates for multilingual input method framework such as IIIMF or uim, there are some critical problems in it.
- uim lacks well supported chinese input methods.
- IIIMF lacks well supported OSS input methods, lacks comfortable GUI.
- Build dependency of ...
Security:
- No security histroy.
Quality assurance:
- SCIM is well maintained by Jame Su who is employed in Novell.
- Fedora, SUSE and Mandriva shipped with SCIM, and no critical bugs has been found in them.
- There are some binary compatibility issue arround libstdc++. Since libscim will be linked with all Gtk+ (and patched version of Qt) applications via its input method module system, and SCIM is written in C++, an application which is compiled against different version of C++ with SCIM will cause clash. This problem isn't reproduced when you use SCIM via XIM.
Standards compliance:
- The package meets debian-policy and FHS.
Dependencies:
- scim
- im-switch
- Anthy
- kasumi
