Created attachment 317212 [details] screenshot of non-reproducing this bug Guys, help me to reproduce this, please? I just cannot reproduce this. I tried even logging with hi_IN in login, all gedit and other Gnome programs are in Hindi (I suppose), but http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ still looks good for me. I have installed fonts-hindi and yet I cannot reproduce it -- see the attached screenshot. Created attachment 317215 [details]

screenshot of reproducing this bug
OK, so apparently the key is to have installed '@Hindi Support' and then log in from gdm with Hindi language. Then hindi characters are all over the place.
Exactly. And if it helps, here's the Test Case for Hindi you could use so you can see how the rendering output should be once its fixed. <http://focus.bne.redhat.com/I18N/IndicTC/lang/hi_IN/font/IndicFontTestCaseCodepoint-Hindi.html> Actually, the explanation why I couldn't reproduce it before using ssh -Y was that there is apparently a bug in firefox scripts -- you have to run export LANG=hi_IN.utf8 LC_ALL=hi_IN.utf8 firefox to get Hindi FF. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion, but this component is not scheduled to be updated in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. If you would like this request to be reviewed for the next minor release, ask your support representative to set the next rhel-x.y flag to "?". Should be fixed now by 3.0.6. |
