for Ubuntu 7.04 I didn't do this.  I use tcsh however.  The 
default environent set up the local for me.  Actually, I 
don't have LC_CTYPE set.  The environment set 
LANG=en_US.UTF-8 and locale looks ok.  Also, XMODIFIERS 
isn't set in any of my files, but when i echo them, they are 
correct, so I'm inheriting them.

I did select a japanese font, but you do that for for asian 
support ... it has nothing to do with scim/uim.

When I went to the SCIM setup gui in preferences I 
deselected everything then selected english and japanese as 
I recall.  It went out and got the appropriate packages for me.

I have a machine I need to bring up just for fun.  Hopefully 
I'll get that in the next few days.  I'll keep better track 
of what it takes this time.
