I have tested several other fonts and all had this weird character there (see update of wdiff)

Screenshot in attachment.

Er, and what should I do with this?

Comment 4 Thomas Göttlicher 2009-10-15 08:43:12 UTC

I guess the RichText widget expects the html-like formated characters. Obviously the widget doesn't know what to do with the unknown character. 

Filtering the text before writing it to the RichText widget might help.

test case

this script prints formatted 1017kB string to y2log

Comment 6 Ladislav Slezák 2009-10-19 15:35:24 UTC

The string is formatted by String::FormatSize() function which internally uses float::tolstring() call.

The result of the attached test case in English locale is:
1017kB: 1017.00 kB

while in Czech it prints:
1017kB: 1�017,00 kB

I don't know whether the bug is in float::tolstring(), glibc or Qt.

Martin?
