Ubuntu bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/pango/+bug/107067

"1) I tried installing Ubuntu Live CD - The Feisty Beta version. Chose the Language of Installation to Tamil.

Rendering of Tamil letters is not proper.

Given below is the similar situation in Kubuntu Edgy where the fonts are rendered properly.

Comment 7 Rahul Bhalerao 2008-06-16 11:05:38 UTC 
This bug seems to be currently fixed. None of the split matras in any of the Indic scripts have such a problem. This Bug should be CLOSED.
