I'll post more details, but my computer crashes hard if I open any qt/kde applications... there was a search for something in the inputmethod directory, that was actually int the input directory... (maybe not the same thing, but it had scim in it none the less) and, I've been, in general having my entire X crash if qtimm doesn't sync up with scim versions... so, I don't know how we can deal with the system crashing hard when the proper version of scim isn't installed. this might be upstream, but it's really hardcore that it blows the whole system down to the point of not taking any keyboard input, and occasionally making it so I can't ssh into it. When the system goes down, there are "prempt" warnings from the kernel, so I'm fearing that it may just be an optimization thing that's causing the system to blow up so completely, however, ebuilds/portage should have a way to deal with this... it looks like qtimm needs to have a hard coded version dependancy, not just for complinging, but for running as well... and if qtimm is installed, scim shouldn't be built without having qtimm rebuilt immediately as well.. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.let portage do it's thing 2.have mismatched versions of qtimm and scim 3. kde doesn't start, or blows up HARD core.. Expected Results: well.. I am running the ~iest of the ~x86... so I sort of expect this, I just hope that this was of any use to the maintainers, because I'm trying to be constructive...

Sorry for the inconvenience. Could you post the versions of scim, scim-qtimm and qt you installed?
I added PDEPEND to block old scim-qtimm and uim-qt, so it will force users to upgrade scim-qtimm and/or uim-qt if needed. I'm not sure whether there will be such an ABI change in immodule for Qt in the future, so wait and see.
