Font scaling in Kate seems broken for non-latin characters

In Kate 3.4.5 (from KDE 4.4.5) certain non-latin characters (e.g. cyrillic ones) do not scale to size other than 9pts and 15pts (they appear as squares) in the Monospace font. On the other hand, latin letters scale fine to any size. The encoding is UTF-8 in both cases.

On Debian (Kate 2.5.10 + KDE 3.5.10) all letters seem to scale fine to any size in the Monospace font (both in UTF-8 and in other encodings).

I have not yet tried this with any other font.

Distro is LFS, i.e. everything was built from source. Do I miss some package for font scaling or is this a matter of system/application configuration?

Make sure non-latin characters are not using a bitmap font.


connect(post, SIGNAL(readSignature()), qapp, SLOT(quit()));
