Description Johannes Löthberg 2016-10-13 20:14:01 UTC 
Hey,

Since commit ba18667bb467ef4734f5d8a9bbeabcad39be4ecc that updated the Unicode data to 9.0 some programs, in particular pulsemixer, experience a bug where lines are overflowing to the start of the next ones.

See: https://camo.githubusercontent.com/5d6cba2bd4472e1ac6139eb4fd5ca7a09e4b4132/68747470733a2f2f707470622e70772f505a69712e706e67

Also seem to be getting similar problems using eg. WeeChat after some person pasted a line with a bunch of random Unicode emoji.
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2016-10-14 14:56:53 UTC 
Let debug this in vte first
Comment 3 Egmont Koblinger 2016-10-14 20:29:37 UTC 
Dupe of bug 772812 (also bug 772890 contains a suggestion on how to make it more robust in the long run).

(By the way I really don't think upgrading the Unicode database within a stable series of glib is a good idea, I recommend to do it only in development series from now on.)
