Package: libqtcore4
Version: 4:4.8.2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream l10n patch

Dear Maintainer,

This is a bug that was filed, accepted and fixed in upstream (Qt):
https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-25169

The fix is here:
http://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,22742

But upstream only intends to include it in version 5.0.

I've asked upstream KDE to include it earlier:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=301610

and now, I'm asking Debian to do the same.

Description copied from the Qt bug above:

Unicode 6 changed the bidi-mirroring properties of some characters (see 
http://unicode.org/versions/corrigendum6.html). Of these characters, the
characters 2019,201A (single quotes), 201D and 201E (double quotes) are 
used in Hebrew (and are to be included in a soon-to-be-released new Hebrew 
Keyboard Layout standard). 

Qt still uses the old definitions. The result is a regression-by-default:
If I wrote this comment in an RTL language (like Hebrew), using the proper
Hebrew quotes (open with U201E and close with U201D), it would be presented
incorrectly in any Qt-based browser.

Thanks,
Shai.
