Hi,

 Thanks for your report, confirmed (and l-cedar seems to have same issue and
 it has wrong "dagger" glyph, too).  I'll ask upstream author to fix this issue.

Hi,

 Upstream replied to me, they say "it is NOT issue in our fonts itself
 because that don't have such glyphs - "EN DASH" and "EM DASH" ".

 When I tried to check, I used gucharmap and uxterm, it shows wrong glyph
 as attached pictures. And after I got reply, I checked with fontforge
 and confirmed they are true.

 So, now I'm confusing - what caused this issue?
  - Motoya L-{cedar,maruberi} don't have "EN DASH" and "EM DASH" glyphs.
  - fontforge shows it, too.
  - However, gucharmap, uxterm and other applications show wrong glyphs.

 Comments are welcome.

Right-click the character in Gucharmap and it will show from which font
the glyph is taken. You probably have some broken font that gets used
as fallback for those characters for some reason.

Hi Khaled,

 Thanks for your quick reply, I didn't know this feature.
 Then I tried with wrong glyph and it says "It's Motoya-L-Cedar" - itself,
 not fallback to others!

Hi Hironori,

 I've checked this with gucharmap and it says "EN DASH" & "EM DASH" are
 provided with DejaVu Sans font.

 1. run gucharmap
 2. select "モトヤLマルベリ3等幅" from list
 3. select "EN DASH" (U+2013)
 4. right click shows which font is used
 5. do same to "EM DASH" (U+2014)


 Could you try and tell the result to me, please?
