For me - too.

With fresh ~/.wine it also happens.

This is a regression, 0.9.46 (or 0.9.45) and lower were ok.

Makes winecfg completely unusable, imho this is a blocker.

winecfg, ms ie, wine notepad are affected.

For example, wine notepad has the menu bar displayed good, but in open dialog
all the russian text is corrupted.

No related output to console for me:

Probably the cause of that output was something different.

Most likely this "regression" is caused by introduction of Tahoma font
replacement which currently doesn't contain cyrillic glyphs at all.

Then why using it? It makes winecfg and many other programs unusable.

Tahoma replacement fixes a ton of font rendering related bugs in Wine.

I have a task of adding cyrillic glyphs to Tahoma in my todo list, but
if any of you have a spare time and could help it would be great.

Please change summary of this bug - not only Cyrillic glyphs are missing in
built-in Tahoma font, but also some Lithuanian characters are also not
included, for example "į".
Maybe built-in Tahoma font has only characters from ISO-8859-1 encoding ?
If so, I'm suggesting to change summary of this bug to:
"Lots of non ISO-8859-1 glyphs (Cyrillic, Lithuanian, etc) are missing in
built-in Tahoma font"

It seems bug #10864 is about the same problems - Japanese and Chinese glyphs
are also missing in built-in Tahoma font :(

I think wine developers should use high-quality font from open source DejaVu
project (http://dejavu.sf.net) - these fonts has symbols almost for all popular
languages.

There are a lot of license/copyright/etc issues that would have to be figured
out before that's possible.

Unfortunately they all don't have the character metrics compatible with
Tahoma which is the highest priority requirement, and actually the only
reason behind introducing built-in Tahoma in Wine.

If DejaVu fonts don't have the character metrics compatible with Tahoma, then
maybe there are other fonts, more compatible with Tahome, for example Gentium,
Charis SIL or other from here:

About which licence/copyright problems you are talking ? I'm pointing only to
open source (libre) fonts, which can be included in wine.

Not all open source licenses are compatible with the LGPL (which wine is
licensed under).

Go ahead and type a long enough string using Tahoma and one of the fonts
above in different point sizes and character sets, and compare the results.

Why not to fall back on some default font that contains all necessary glyphs
for characters not present in Tahoma replacement, like most other applications
do? I suppose it would be better than replacing them with ':'.

I don't think that's an acceptable fallback because in that case Bugzilla
will be flooded by bugs about all kinds of distorted dialog windows.

There are not that much of cyrillic glyphs to draw to start with, and some
of them could be simply copied from the latin ones.

While this bug is about Cyrillic glyphs not just Russian ones I think my
comment will be relevant.

Built-in Tahoma still misses Cyrillic glyphs specific to Ukrainian alphabet.
They are:

Ґґ Іі Її Єє

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukrainian_alphabet

Belarusian letter Ўў is missing too.

I think this bug should be reopen, since tahomabd.ttf still misses cyrillic
glyphs and applications using tahoma bold show up only boxes instead of
cyrillic characters.

I've tested this on 0.9.61.

Winetricks solve the problem, but I think that tahomabd should have cyrillic
glyphs natively.
