Summary: emacs should disable XIM by default

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=465214

           Summary: emacs should disable XIM by default
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: medium
          Priority: medium
         Component: emacs
        AssignedTo: coldwell(a)redhat.com
        ReportedBy: petersen(a)redhat.com
         QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
                CC: coldwell(a)redhat.com, fedora-i18n-bugs(a)redhat.com
            Blocks: 438944
   Estimated Hours: 0.0
    Classification: Fedora


Description of problem:
XIM (X Input Method protocol) is pretty intrusive for Emacs users specially for
SCIM which defaults to using C-Space as its hotkey, and anyway Emacs provides
its own superior builtin input methods designed for native input.  I propose
that we turn off XIM by default Emacs for fedora.  It can still be enabled by
users using the X resource useXIM.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run Emacs with SCIM enabled.
2. Press C-Space

Actual results:
2. SCIM is enabled

Expected results:
2. mark to be set

Additional info:
Emacs is capable of input most major Asian languages adequately by itself and
also can support has package that support anthy, scim-bridge and uim via elisp,
therefore is no need to have XIM enabled by default any longer.

I think configuring the build with "--without-xim" should be sufficient to do
this.

I thought building with --without-xim doesn't allow people to turn it on again
with X resource.

We shouldn't take a mistake again on this change. just noticed that
'--without-xim' option broke a dead key support on emacs earlier. see Bug
#224626.
