Hi,

sorry it took so long to get back to you.

If you switch to a console after having selected Punjabi, and try:
  grep -i font /var/log/syslog

you'll see two lines, the default one, then the updated one:
  [timestamp] gtk-set-font: Switching to font 'DejaVu Sans' for 'en'
  [timestamp] gtk-set-font: Switching to font 'DejaVu Sans' for 'pa'

Unfortunately I cannot tell that the rendering is broken. I'll try to
modify an image locally and see whether I can post some screenshots
with Lohit fonts, so that you tell me if that's better.

Mraw,
KiBi.
