Illustration of the problem from IRC
I have a guess here. I'm thinking that this is only happening when Firefox is compiled with system cairo. If that's the case, search the firefox layout code for a commented pango_cairo_font_get_scaled_font(). Uncommenting that line may fix it. That's my wild guess anyway. (In reply to comment #4) > Note 2: While download upstream version (localized in pa-IN locale) and run > with those website, Result are bug-free > firefox-3.0.1.tar.bz2 it is not true (bug is there) , still find bug while use update package on fedora. Is this duplicate of bug 458428? yes *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 458428 *** can we have this bug fixed in new xulrunner package built for F9 and F10 updates? SRPM is available at http://paragn.fedorapeople.org/firefox-3.0.x/xulrunner-1.9.0.2-6.fc10.src.rpm I did koji scratch build also but not sure why it failed for x86_64 arch. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=924216 Yes it would be very good to have this patch for fedora. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle. Changing version to '10'.
