Package: libgtk2.0-0 Version: 2.24.4-3 Severity: normal It seems most Gnome/GTK+ applications mishandle Unicode diacritical marks, by putting them on the *following* letter instead of the *preceding* letter.
Try pasting the following line: λ̄μμ̃o into different applications and compare: - Emacs gets it correct, putting the bar over the lambda and the tilde over the mu. - gnome-terminal gets it incorrect, putting the bar over the first mu and the tilde over the o. *BUT* gedit gets it correct in its "new profile" dialog if the string is pasted into the "new profile name" textarea. - gedit gets it incorrect in its main edition area (file contents), putting the bar over the first mu and the tilde over the o. *BUT* gedit gets it correct in its "file/open" dialog if the string is pasted into the "filename" textarea. - galeon gets it correct. - iceweasel gets it correct. - mlterm gets it correct. - abiword gets it correct. So it looks like some "multiline textarea" widget in GTK+ used by gnome-terminal and gedit gets diacritical marks incorrectly, but the "single line textarea" they use handles diacritical marks correctly. But maybe that widget is not in GTK+, but in another library? Not sure. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable'), (400, 'testing'), (300, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_LU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_LU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libgtk2.0-0 depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.13-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcairo2 1.10.2-6 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libcomerr2 1.41.12-4stable1 common error description library ii libcups2 1.4.7-1 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libfontconfig1 2.9.0-7 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.4.2-2.1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcrypt11 1.4.6-7 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.23.5-1 GDK Pixbuf library ii libglib2.0-0 2.28.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnutls26 2.10.5-2 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.8.3+dfsg-4squeeze1 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries - k ii libgtk2.0-common 2.20.1-2 Common files for the GTK+ graphica ii libk5crypto3 1.8.3+dfsg-4squeeze1 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries - C ii libkrb5-3 1.8.3+dfsg-4squeeze1 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.4-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.2-1 X11 Composite extension library ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.10-2 X cursor management library ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.3-1 X11 damaged region extension libra ii libxext6 2:1.1.2-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.5-1 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxi6 2:1.3-6 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 2:1.1-3 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxrandr2 2:1.3.0-3 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.6-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii shared-mime-info 0.71-4 FreeDesktop.org shared MIME databa ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages libgtk2.0-0 recommends: ii hicolor-icon-theme 0.12-1 default fallback theme for FreeDes ii libgtk2.0-bin 2.24.4-3 The programs for the GTK+ graphica Versions of packages libgtk2.0-0 suggests: ii gvfs 1.6.4-3 userspace virtual filesystem - ser ii librsvg2-common 2.34.0-1 SAX-based renderer library for SVG -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
