38 | =head3 I use Gentoo, and I have a problem... |
|
|
39 | |
|
|
40 | There are three big problems with Gentoo Linux: first of all, most if not |
|
|
41 | all Gentoo systems are completely broken (missing or mismatched header |
|
|
42 | files, broken compiler etc. are just the tip of the iceberg); secondly, |
|
|
43 | the Gentoo maintainer thinks it is a good idea to add broken patches to |
|
|
44 | the code; and lastly, it should be called Gentoo GNU/Linux. |
|
|
45 | |
|
|
46 | For these reasons, it is impossible to support rxvt-unicode on |
|
|
47 | Gentoo. Problems appearing on Gentoo systems will usually simply be |
|
|
48 | ignored unless they can be reproduced on non-Gentoo systems. |

1207 | =head3 Character widths are not correct. |
|
|
1208 | |
|
|
1209 | urxvt uses the system wcwidth function to know the information about |
|
|
1210 | the width of characters, so on systems with incorrect locale data you |
|
|
1211 | will likely get bad results. Two notorious examples are Solaris 9, |
|
|
1212 | where single-width characters like U+2514 are reported as double-width, |
|
|
1213 | and Darwin 8, where combining chars are reported having width 1. |
|
|
1214 | |
|
|
1215 | The solution is to upgrade your system or switch to a better one. A |
|
|
1216 | possibly working workaround is to use a wcwidth implementation like |
