Description of problem: After update to FC5, I find that kosole can't display some chinese font such as "é" in en_US.UTF-8 locale for me anymore. But all this is OK in FC4. It seems that another kde application such as knotes has this problem also. But all gnome applications have no this problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.5.1-5 How reproducible: Install/update to FC5, set locale as en_. Steps to Reproduce: 1.install/update to FC5 2.set locale as en_US.UTF-8 3.open konsole, use scim's "pinyin" method to input "ding"+the number of "éâ. Actual results: The "é" be displaied as a dot. Expected results: It is displaied nom Additional info:
Just to add a "me too". It's not just konsole, but the whole KDE. Amarok, for example cannot display the same characters as well. Any gnome app can display the fonts fine, including gnome-terminal. E.g. Konsole display "..17" while gnome-terminal displays "ç±æ17"
This is still problem in Fedora7 and KDE 3.5.7 Even on the first page opened by Konqueror (/usr/share/doc/HTML/index.html) the Chinese text "简体中文" is broken - the first character is missing. Seems that chinese characters are taken from Japanese fonts, which obviously fail. In Firefox it displays OK. Same problem for all KDE applications. A funny thing happens with Konsole - if I do a "cat utf8-demo.txt" then the chinese characters start to work correctly.

Still a problem in Fedora7
Still a problem in Fedora8
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
