James Richard Tyrer:
You said, "Specifically with CJK languages there is the Han unification issue -- these characters have the same Unicode character code and the same meaning but the actual glyphs are going to be different in Japanese, Korean, and the 3 types of Chinese." I don't agree with this. AFAIN, if two words is in the same shape, even they have different pronounciations, different meanings, they will be encoded as one. I don't know why characters' display should be bound up with locale as a code means a shape.
Abel Cheung:
I will have a try. What I want to say is that at least pango give a partial solution. Are there any users pay attention to $PANGO_LANGUAGE? If everything is okay, nobody will touch LC_ALL for setting fonts, leaving behind $PANGO_LANGUAGE!
Hope this could be fixed in no soon.
