Initially, I felt it to be a KDE problem. Later, it looked like a problem specific to KDE Konsole. Then later again, I realized the GNOME apps were also suffering the same. So, I'm not very sure where this bug relates to. How is it with other localized (non-indic) languages ? Are they rendered properly in the KDE/GNOME apps, especially the terminal apps ? From what I understood till now about fonts, I guess this problem is specific to the way terminal fonts are rendered. Because Konqueror can render indic fonts pretty good. So can many of the KDE text editors. I'm sure the situation would be similar on GNOME. Note: The same localized text, on Linux's VT, is completely garbled. It just shows a bunch of white square boxes. Please confirm, which package should own this bug.
