Description Zhe Su 2006-12-01 06:26:29 UTC

How to reproduce:

1. Boot with openSUSE 10.2 RC4 DVD, select Simplified Chinese in isolinux menu.
2. After boot into installation, select Software Details, open language selection page, you can see that zh_CN is selected already, and scim-qtimm package is selected.
3. Enable zh_TW by clicking the check box of zh_TW language, then you can see that most packages of zh_TW will be selected.
4. check package scim-qtimm again, you may find that it's not selected anymore.

I don't know whether it's scim-qtimm specific issue or a generic issue which may affect other packages.

Comment 2 Zhe Su 2006-12-01 06:38:06 UTC

I found that, press accept and check again, scim-qtimm is actually selected. It's weird.

And I found that scim-32bit and scim-qtimm-32bit won't be selected by default when installing x86_64 version.

These two packages are mandatory when using 32bit apps with input method.

Comment 3 Zhe Su 2006-12-01 09:05:09 UTC

I found another weird issue: during installation I selected zh_CN as default language, zh_TW and ja as additional language. almost all packages for ja and zh_TW, including all fonts, are selected.
But after installation, I found that only a few packages of ja and zh_TW were installed. All ja and zh_TW fonts were not installed.

Comment 4 Matej Horvath 2006-12-01 12:42:32 UTC

Please don't write more than one problem into one bug report. Actually there is a problem with the scim-qtimm and language patterns, scim-qtimm and the machine architecture and an another problem with the language patterns generally.

Zhe Su> 4. check package scim-qtimm again, you may find that it's not selected anymore.

I can reproduce that with RC5 (downloadable 4 GB DVD).

Comment 6 Mike Fabian 2006-12-01 17:42:58 UTC

Apart from scim-qtimm it also affects the packages

    - ghostscript-cjk
    - gtkiterm

which are deselected as soon as zh_TW is choosen.

Zhe Su> I found that, press accept and check again, scim-qtimm is actually selected.
Zhe Su> It's weird.

Yes, reproduced here. Same for ghostscript-cjk and gtkiterm

I can reproduce that as well with RC5 on x86_64.
scim-32bit and scim-qtimm-32bit are apparently never selected
by default.

Comment 9 Mike Fabian 2006-12-01 22:07:49 UTC

I cannot reproduce the issue in comment #3.

I tried the procedure described there but after the installation
the founder fonts as well as the sazanami fonts were installed.

Mike please attach a testcase described here:

OK, I'll create a new bug for the scim-32bit problem.
