Package: libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 Version: 2.22.5-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
The webkit engine renders some Hebrew characters as square boxes. I have created a minimal example that shows the problem. The link to the minimal example is here: http://bibleconsultants.nl/downloads/webkit2gtk/ Here are the steps to take for the problem to show up. * Download the files "run" and "main.c" to a local directory. * Install the dependencies as listed in file "run". * Compile and run the example: $ ./run The result of these steps is that certain Hebrew characters get rendered as in file "wrong-rendering.png" at the link above. The expected result would be that these Hebrew characters get rendered correctly as in file "right-rendering.png" at the link above. The correct rendering can also be seen by opening the link http://bibleconsultants.nl/downloads/webkit2gtk/resources.html in a browser. Running the link http://bibleconsultants.nl/downloads/webkit2gtk/resources.html through the validator at https://validator.w3.org shows warnings like "Text run is not in Unicode Normalization Form C." But it is not a requirement in html 5 that "form C" be used for Unicode characters. The webkit rendering engine should also render decomposed Unicode characters. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.18.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_CRAP Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 2.30.0-2 ii libc6 2.28-6 ii libcairo2 1.16.0-2 ii libegl1 1.1.0-1 ii libenchant1c2a 1.6.0-11.1+b1 ii libfontconfig1 2.13.1-2 ii libfreetype6 2.9.1-3 ii libgcc1 1:8.2.0-19 ii libgcrypt20 1.8.4-5 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.38.0+dfsg-7 ii libgl1 1.1.0-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.58.3-1 ii libgstreamer-gl1.0-0 1.14.4-1 ii libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-0 1.14.4-1 ii libgstreamer1.0-0 1.14.4-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.5-1 ii libharfbuzz-icu0 2.3.1-1 ii libharfbuzz0b 2.3.1-1 ii libhyphen0 2.8.8-7 ii libicu63 63.1-6 ii libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18 2.22.5-1 ii libjpeg62-turbo 1:1.5.2-2+b1 ii libnotify4 0.7.7-4 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.42.4-6 ii libpng16-16 1.6.36-5 ii libsecret-1-0 0.18.7-1 ii libsoup2.4-1 2.64.2-2 ii libsqlite3-0 3.26.0+fossilbc891ac6b-2 ii libstdc++6 8.2.0-19 ii libtasn1-6 4.13-3 ii libwayland-client0 1.16.0-1 ii libwayland-egl1 1.16.0-1 ii libwayland-server0 1.16.0-1 ii libwebp6 0.6.1-2 ii libwebpdemux2 0.6.1-2 ii libwoff1 1.0.2-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.7-1 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.4-2 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.4-3 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-7+b3 ii libxslt1.1 1.1.32-2 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1 Versions of packages libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 recommends: ii gstreamer1.0-gl 1.14.4-1 ii gstreamer1.0-plugins-good 1.14.4-1 ii gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio 1.14.4-1 ii libgl1-mesa-dri 18.3.3-1 Versions of packages libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 suggests: pn libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37-gtk2 <none> -- no debconf information
