Description Matthew Barnes 2007-12-04 19:04:24 UTC
Forwarding from a downstream bug report:
http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=290471

Reproduced this with GtkHTML 3.17.3 before forwarding.
Use "LANG=or_IN.UTF-8 evolution".

----

Description of problem:
for Indic Langauge, Delete with Backspace having problem with some specific cases.  Somewhere Undo action behaving in most unpermissable and ridiculas way!!

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evolution-2.11.92-3.fc8
gtkhtml3-3.15.92-1.fc8

How reproducible:
Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
Login with Oriya Language
2. Open Evolution --> New Mail
3. Go to the message body.
4. Enable SCIM with pressing CTRL+SPACE & choose Oriya inscript IME.
5. write the key sequence : mcdheovj
6. Press left-arrow key 3 times
7. Press backspace 3 times
8. It should delete 'e' 'h' and 'd' only. 
   Its deleting 'c' and specially 'm' also which is a consonant and placing 
   independently not with any conjunct.
9. Now, try with pressing CTRL+z to undo the delete and take back the full word.
10. Its not taking back the full word as before.
(_Please copy to original word and paste once and then try to pasted word,
so make easy to understand_).


Actual results:
It should delete 'e' 'h' and 'd' only. Its deleting 'c' and specially 'm' also
which is a consonant and placing independently not with any conjunct.
Its not taking back the full word as before.


Expected results:
The Delete with backspace should maintain its rule to delete chars or composed
chars within a word. And Undo should revert it back properly in its previous state.
