Re: Debian package for SCIM

[James Su <suzhe@turbolinux.com.cn>]

Hi,
  Sorry for late reply. It's ok for me to make scim-chinese deb package 
and integrate it into debian.
  And I wonder if it's ok to integrate the debian files into scim and 
scim-tables offical package, so people can make deb as well as rpm 
package by themselves.

Regards
James Su
