Please make sure to do "make install" in the uim-1.5.6/gtk directory. You don't have to remove any component of uim package from Ubuntu, I think. One caveat is that don't do "make install" on the toplevel uim-1.5.6/ directory. It may break some components of uim which was provided by Ubuntu.

Also I've finally conducted the real fix for the bug. I think it is preferable to use the patch instead of modifying gtk-im-uim.h. Please use the attached patch.

The change is already committed in the repository.
