Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
I've attached a screenshot showing the problem. When the correct Unicode text is copied from the Wikipedia edit box and pasted into the terminal, it gets mangled since complex text support is not respected as needed for Hindi and many other Asian languages. If I recall, previous versions of Gnome-terminal did not have this problem.
