Maybe there is no monospace font for Amharic ☹
This makes gnome-terminal look weird in am_ET.UTF-8 locale, see screenshot.

--- Comment #1 from Akira TAGOH tagoh@redhat.com --- Sure. so what do you suggest? as you know we have own fontconfig config in each font packages to give a hint for substitution. this result would simply means there are no monospaced font packages which have Amharic coverage, or which provide a fontconfig config at least. the kind of this issue should goes into font packages.

--- Comment #2 from Akira TAGOH tagoh@redhat.com --- BTW that wired rendering should be another issue. maybe relevant to new Pango with Harfbuzz.
