1.91.1. RHBA-2011:0521: bug fix update

Updated imsettings packages that fix a bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The imsettings packages provide a library and command line tools to configure and control input-methods settings. Users normally access it through the "im-chooser" GUI tool.

This update fixes the following bug:

It was not possible to turn off the GTK XIM input-method module from imsettings. As a consequence, users were unable to enter Unicode characters using the Ctrl+Shift+U shortcut. With this update, the default GTK input-method is restored to gtk-im-context-simple, which allows Unicode input with the shortcut. Now only desktop locales that normally need X locale compose default to using the GTK XIM input-method module. (BZ#616061)

Users of imsettings should upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
