My initial thought was to set it for the default language, i.e. the 
language specified at installation time. The code I have written to do 
this is as follows:

# use im-switch to set up the scim environment
tmplang=${LC_ALL:-${LC_CTYPE:-${LANG}}}                                                                                       

tl=${tmplang%%.*}
update-alternatives --install /etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/$tl xinput-$tl 
/etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/scim-immodule 50                         
im-switch -s scim-immodule -l 
$tmplang                                                                                                 

 
Not sure if this is the best way to do it though. all_ALL would probably 
ensure scim-immodule is still used even if the user changed his locale. 
Again, I am open to suggestions.
