[Bug 344709] [NEW] kde 4.2.1 has problems showing certain utf-8 characters

[Khashayar Naderehvandi]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase

I'm a new KDE user so I'm not sure whether this problem is a regression
or not. I have noticed that every here and there around the desktop,
there are problems showing non-ASCII characters such as ö ä å. At some
places it works fine, such as filenames shown in either dolphin or the
folder view plasmoid. In other places, it doesn't, such as the
taskmanager plasmoid.

Here's a screenshot that shows that shows an example: https://dl.getdropbox.com/u/175461/kde-and-utf-8.png. 
The word in the marked area should read "Systeminställningar".

Also, not sure whether this is against kdebase, or some other package.

Forgot to add: This is on an up-to-date Jaunty install.

** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
