Hello Asano-san,

I have koffice-02052000-1 installed.  KWord crashes whenever I hit 
Ctrl-Space to start Japanese input (segmentation fault in
KWParag::setFormat()).

The LANG and XMODIFIERS environment variables appear to be set properly.

I am trying to get this to work from a Red Hat installation (English).  I
have not touched the locale settings but there appears to be the full
Japanese locale data in /usr/share/locale.  I have installed the canna and
kinput2 packages and I can use them to enter Japanese text into kterm even
though I get the following warning when kterm starts up:

Warning: locale not supported by C library, locale unchanged
Couldn't set locale:
ja_JP.eucJP,ja_JP.ujis,ja_JP.EUC,japanese.euc,Japanese-EUC,ja,japan

I don't know which library this is referring to.  I'm also unsure if this 
means there is a problem with the library or with the locale data.  Do you
know what I can do to verify that the locale data is correct?  Or how to
determine which library needs replacing?

Thanks for the help.
