Description Ralph Aichinger 2005-07-25 12:09:52 UTC 
Distribution/Version: Debian Sid

1. Select a font without U+2002 for UI font in Gnome (I used Myriad Web).
2. Open Yelp (any TOC)
3. Get something like http://www.pangea.at/~ralph/enspace.png
(the replacement rectangle with "2002" is displayed instead of a 
space, be it "en" or "normal".)

It does not make too much sense from a user perspective to show the
replacement character for en space, replacing it with a "normal" space
would make much more sense!
