** Description changed: - Binary package hint: software-center + Ubuntu Software Center 1.1.7, Epiphany 2.28.0, Midori 0.1.9 (Ubuntu + 9.10) - I have no idea about other languages, but Chinese characters really displays abnormal in Software Center. - They are not even in the same type of fonts. + In WebKit-GTK, Chinese text varies fonts unexpectedly. - Such as the "办公" under the office icon, the font of "办" is WQY, i guess, while "公”'s is Ukai. - Check out the attachment below. + For example, in Ubuntu Software Center's main screen, where the Office department is labelled "办公", "办" is in the WQY font while "公” is in the Ukai font. And where the Universal Access department is labelled "全局访问", the "全局" and "访问" are in different fonts. + http://launchpadlibrarian.net/37382124/Lesson07_images_033.png + + You can see the same problem in Epiphany and Midori browser, which also use WebKit-GTK, by copying and pasting this into their address field: + data:text/html,<meta%20http-equiv="Content-Type"%20content="text/html;%20charset="utf-8">办公%20全局访问 + + Firefox, AbiWord, and OpenOffice.org do not have the same problem. + Interestingly, neither does Chromium 4.0.293.0 (35769, from the Chromium + daily PPA), which suggests that it may be a WebKit-GTK bug that has been + fixed since the version packaged in Ubuntu 9.10.
