[Bug 1251193] Re: Language issue from the unity lense screen

 

This is a know problem due to a workaround of a severe bug in the Cairo
rendering library (a third-party library used by Unity to render text)
in which it crashes when attempting to render certain characters,
especially those from the Myanmar plane in Unicode.

A fix in Unity requires the upstream Cairo library be fixed.  In the
mean time, we deemed it was safer to display '?' rather than have your
computer crash.
