Fixed with http://commits.kde.org/konsole/de5ef9484a253795002d0e6accc86cc3cb1b5c71 Jekyll, should the commit be backported? Appearantly, some distributions are already shipping Qt 4.8, but we won't release KDE 4.8 until end of January. I'd appreciate it if it were backported. I think all of arch linux users will too. For now Qt 4.8rc1 is only in testing, but as soon as 4.8 stable comes out, it'll be sure to hit the main repository, and I doubt very much that KDE 4.9 will be out by then. I mean KDE 4.8 obviously. Yes, I think backporting is really needed. Actually, ArchLinux happens to be the distro I am using. I will do it.

Open Konsole, select Droid Sans Mono as default font Actual Results: Weird looking terminal Expected Results: Beautiful terminal
