Description of problem: When I go to Turkish newspaper sites I see that certain characters, specially "i" without a dot and uppoercase "I" with a dot is replaced by a large blank space. This was working fine in FC5. The same pages show fine in Firefox.

it's a user font setting issue. I assume you have not installed orselected the correct fonts. It works fine for me with the current FC6-update. Please take a look at above screenshot.
Could you tell me which ones are Turkish fonts. I have the same set of fonts since FC5. I do have the x-fonts ISO8859-9 and the standard truetype etc. In the past I don't remember having to do anything special. I have been trying to hunt this down for many hours now! Thanks
it's dejavu-lgc-fonts, which is included in FC6. For FC5, you can get it from Fedore Extras.
Well, I finally tracked it down to a number of type1 fonts I had. When I simply install the type1 fonts from FC6 everything works fine. It must be something weird with fontconfig. Now I can acutally use my Verdana and Arial Turkish characters just fine as before. Thanks for the help. I am too tired to track it down for fontconfig. Obviously Firefox/pango/cairo is not effected by whatever was causing the problem.
