--- Comment #2 from Adam Williamson (Fedora) <[email protected]> ---
Looking into it a bit more, it seems
/etc/fonts/conf.d/55-vazirmatn-vf-fonts.conf sets Vazirmatn as a 'fallback' for
monospace, as part of
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/SetDefaultMonospaceFallbackFont , the
idea being that we wanted to explicitly set a non-monospace sans-serif font as
a fallback for monospace for languages where we don't have a native monospace
font, which appears to include Arabic.

Still, GNOME Terminal manages this, somehow or other. Latin characters in GNOME
Terminal look 'normal' to me, and I can paste Arabic characters into a terminal
and they show up looking (to my eyes) more or less the same. Whatever it's
doing, can we make kmscon do that too?

See attached screenshot of GNOME Terminal in Arabic.
