On =x11-terms/rxvt-unicode-9.07-r2 Japanese characters would display fine, however upon upgrading to x11-terms/rxvt-unicode-9.10 they no longer display correctly. It seemed like a halfwidth vs fullwidth issue. [ebuild R ] x11-terms/rxvt-unicode-9.10 USE="256-color font-styles perl truetype wcwidth -afterimage -blink -fading-colors -force-hints -iso14755 -pixbuf -unicode3 -vanilla" 0 kB I have also tried with -wcwidth and just plain vanilla.

Created attachment 265387 [details] screenshot of problem Here's a screenshot showing the problem between the 2 versions of urxvt. The top one being 9.07 and the bottom one being 9.10
OK, I'm seeing that too with USE="256-color fading-colors font-styles iso14755 perl pixbuf truetype vanilla -afterimage -blink -force-hints -unicode3 -wcwidth" Haven't noticed by now, cause stopped using urxvt actively after confrontation with the author.
By the way, crazy CFLAGS. Mine are just about vanilla and I'm on x86.
(In reply to comment #3) > By the way, crazy CFLAGS. These all look legitimate to me. @Kenneth: Could you attach or point to a file with Japanese characters so I can test locally? Also, it looks right now like USE=vanilla only stops us from applying two "unsupported" patches - maybe we should change that to include all the others, or it won't really be "vanilla" after all. Could you test with USE="-* vanilla"?
Created attachment 265479 [details] Japanese test file Hm, well it appears to actually work with USE="-*". After some fiddling around, it would seem USE=256-color is what breaks it. I attached a small file with an example sentence in it.
I have a question from the rxvt-unicode team (posting by proxy): Can you check if this bug is fixed in rxvt-unicode CVS version? The fix is not included in the 9.11 release. The instructions to fetch the CVS version are there: http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/rxvt-unicode.html
@comment 6: I'm surprised upstream didn't sent you to some rpm repository, as they usually do. But the patch (revision 179 of rxvtfont.C - honestly, still on cvs...) indeed fixes the problem.
<http://cvs.schmorp.de/rxvt-unicode/Changes>: 9.12 Wed Jun 29 14:34:28 CEST 2011 [...] - fix rendering of double width chars in certain circumstances, more likely to happen if urxvt is compiled with 256 colors support as urxvt runs out of fonts much earlier then. Fixes gentoo bug #358151 (Emanuele Giaquinta).
