[Bug 508783] [NEW] Complex fonts are not displayed properly

 

Public bug reported:

When using gnome-activity journal trunk build, Bangla complex characters do not appear properly. They appear broken.
In some asian languages, combination of two or more characters is represented as a new glyph. In gnome-activity journal, they are not showing up correctly, and individual characters are shown. In default gnome, these characters work without problem.

See the attached screenshot. While the representation of weekday names
in gnome shell calender is alright, gnome-activity shows them
incorrectly. One instance is marked in red.
