Package: kword
Version: 1:1.3.5-2
Severity: important
Many KDE applications including kword can not input text using immodule.
I realized this when I encountered problem testing unuploaded package
(scim-qtimm) but this seems well known issues. I got info from AWASHIRO
Ikuya as:

Quite informative comment. (Fix was in HEAD, not backported to
KOFFICE_1_3_BRANCH) This is last November.

(This is japanese)
Also this Japanese page http://slashdot.jp/~kzk/journal/
following link from above page was useful.
In summary, they commited more fix to HEAD branch enen on 30-1-2004.
http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-cvs&m=110709281228960&w=2
(This guy's commit has been fixing around immodules)
So unless current HEAD is packaged for Debian, Many key KDE application
seems to lack good CJK support.
I am filing this bug report as a reminder since maintaner may not have
noticed this important issues for CJK user.
FYI: Gnome has been good for CJK. So KDE should be as well :-)
