           Summary: Glyph of 0BF6 TAMIL DEBIT SIGN ௶ in Lohit Tamil (and
                    Classical) fonts to be corrected

            Status: NEW
         Component: lohit-tamil-fonts
           Product: Fedora

Description of problem:

The glyph of one Tamil symbol 0BF6 TAMIL DEBIT SIGN ௶ in the Lohit Tamil (and
Classical) fonts is not true to the printed glyphs.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

2.5.0

How reproducible:

Use the Lohit Tamil (and Classical in SVN) to display the character 0BF6 TAMIL
DEBIT SIGN ௶.

Actual results:

It is given a shape that is different from the actual printed glyphs.

Expected results:

It should be given a shape according to the actual printed glyphs.

Additional info:

This change actually has to be done in Unicode code chart first, and I have
submitted a document to Unicode people for this. I will update this bug once it
is approved. Till then this is a placeholder so that the issue is not
forgotten.

For attestation of the actual printed glyph and replacement glyph for Lohit
Tamil fotns, please see bug #807068 and its attachment
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=572886. Do I have to re-attach
that attachment here?
