same here (Persian - Farsi) kde 4.8.1 arora 11.0-3 qtwebkit 2.2.1-2 kwebkitpart 1.2-0.2 fedora 16 I have the same problem with goldendict and amarok where they use qtWebKit to render complex text (Persian - Farsi). kde 4.8.1 arora 11.0-3 qtwebkit 2.2.1-2 kwebkitpart 1.2-0.2 fedora 16 This bug also affects Fedora 17 beta's QTwebkit based apps. I wonder whether qt is compiled with complex text support or yum is not installing some dependencies for qtwebkit. Because in Archlinux, QTWebkit (qt 4.8.1) based apps are rendering "complex text" without any problem. For giggles, check if libicu is installed or not. And if not, install it and see if it makes any difference. Created attachment 578441 [details] goldendict fedora 17 beta showing incorrect text rendering in qtwebkit part, widgets (lineedit, tab) showing proper text. (In reply to comment #7) > For giggles, check if libicu is installed or not.

Hi, this affects me too on x86_64 version, and it is a show stopper, the same version works fine in Kubuntu, and yes, libicu installed. The letters of Arabic (and I think all RTL languages) is reversed, and the connected letters are disconnected, for example: رجل man is rendered as ل ج ر (of course without the spaces) qtwebkit-2.2.1-6.fc17 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 17. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/qtwebkit-2.2.1-6.fc17 qtwebkit-2.2.1-6.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/qtwebkit-2.2.1-6.fc16 thanks, the bug got fixed with the qtwebkit-2.2.1-6.fc17 update Thank you for your commitment.
