I am facing a problem on my newly installed arch linux machine with GNOME - vim is unable to render powerline glyphs on the gnome-terminal. I have installed the patched fonts and changed the gnome-terminal preferences to use the powerline font. Also, I have installed powerline and powerline-fonts using pacman. I use vim-airline plugin with the setting "let g:airline_powerline_fonts = 1". I tried different powerline fonts and none of them resolved the problem. pango-list command displays me all the powerline fonts too. I have tried a lot of different variations to fix this problem but, I haven't been able to get anything to work. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Your terminal isn't showing few characters in the above screenshot
Either fonts with those characters aren't installed or Encoding of terminal isn't set to UTF-8
You've installed glyphs, in that case, only option left is adding the following line in .vimrc
set encoding=utf-8
You also need to confirm that terminal is configured to display UTF-8 encoding
Check the compatibility tab in gnome-terminal preferences
