I suppose GtkFontChooser disables fallback font by default. so it's not that
surprised even if Gurmukhi characters are displayed as the hex code on
Liberation Mono. if you prefer displaying an example in English, it's a
translation issue I think. reassigning to gnome-terminal.

Same bug was there earlier with gnome-font-viewer.

Example:
$LANG=mr_IN gnome-font-viewer LiberationMono-Regular.ttf

It was trying to show pango marathi language string with Liberation Mono, but
since Liberation Mono does not supports Marathi it was showing square box.

But now it is fixed in gnome-font-viewer

Still same issue is in gedit as well.

Or reassigning to gtk3 maybe?

I think this is because of there are no latin glyphs in Lohit Punjabi font. so
this cannot be a bug in gnome-terminal

Latin shapes of Lohit Punjabi are not used in this case.

Each font shows shapes it contains, so user can select font according to his
choice.

Problem is gnome-terminal looking for Punjabi shapes in Latin font ;) 
and that is why we are getting square boxes.

this need fix.

--- Comment #11 from Fedora End Of Life  ---
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

This is working fine now. If font does not have characters for locale sample
string, sample sting shown from fonts character itself.

Closing please reopen if any problem.
