Sirgazil,

Yes, although the spacing is simply a side-effect of a bad or
missing default font. This is what variable-width (proportional)
fonts look like when rendered as fixed-width (monospace) cells.
If you're lucky, GNOME is innocent, and a stale fontconfig cache
is to blame.
1. Does /var/cache/fontconfig exist? If so, remove it (you'll
probably need sudo)
2. Regardless of step 1: run ‘fc-cache -r’ (without sudo) and
3. Open a new terminal[0]
4. …profit?
Kind regards,
T G-R
[0]: I don't know whether GNOME terminal tries to be clever by
opening new windows in the same process, so do make sure you're
actually starting a fresh instance.
