Description A S Alam 2007-08-23 12:01:28 UTC
Please describe the problem:
Double cursor is appearing when try to delete some specific conjuncts (GSUB)
with backspace. Not applicable for all conjuncts. But Its not appearing if those
specific conjuncts places alone ---- Not within any word. Creating problem only
when those appearing within any word and followed by dependent vowels like Vowel
sign AA (U+0B3E)(inscript 'e') and followed by any other GPOS. This is the
observation result so far. 

pango-1.17.5-1.fc8



Steps to reproduce:
1. Open gedit in or_IN locale
2. Enable SCIM with CTRL+SPACE
3. Choose inscript IME
4. Type h=<d"ejs
5. Press left-arrow key once
6. Press Bcakespace once (it will delete 'e' char)
7. Press Backspace once again.
8. Double cursor will appear.

Actual results:

Does this happen every time?
yes, while using "halant' in Indic languages

Other information:
case in Hindi:
Example for Hindi, 
[(U+0915)+094d+0930+0915+0916] = क्रकख
1. Copy paste in gedit (kedit for correct behavior)
2. goto End  word
3. Move to one word Left
4. Press "Del" key
