Description of problem: In lohit-malayalam font, 0D28 + 0D4D + 0D2A (key 'V', key 'D', key 'H' on malayalam inscript keyboard) gives the conjunct ' ന്പ ' . But instead of 0D28 (key 'V'), it must be 0D2E (key 'C'). Hence the correct combination is 0D2E + 0D4D + 0D2A (type key 'C', key 'D', key 'H' on malayalam inscript keyboard)which must give the conjunct ന്പ. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open gedit/kedit. 2.Type unicode 0D28, 0D4D, 0D2A (or type key 'V', key 'D', key 'H' respectively using Malayalam Inscript). 3.Result is ന്പ.
