Bug Description

Binary package hint: scim-pinyin

After experiencing a problem with my home partition getting completely filled, all KDE applications crashed on startup with scim-pinyin appearing in the backtrace. I noticed that my ~/.scim/pinyin/pinyin_phrase_index had a zero byte length. I removed this file and restarted scim, the index was regenerated and everything worked again.

It would be nice if scim-pinyin would do some sanity checking on its files.

Ubuntu Release: 7.10
Architecture: amd64
scim-pinyin version: 0.5.91-0ubuntu12
