问题
as the image shows , after installing the powerline for vim, some symbols are not working.
For searching google i thought there maybe problems with the patch fonts. But after trying i cannot solve this problem. Could someone help me?
Environment: Mac OSX 10.8.2, iTerm2.

I had the same issue, the solution was much more basic than than installing the fonts, but was not mentioned anywhere else: manually setting the fonts in your terminal (still need to make sure you have the fonts installed).
In iTerm2: iTerm > preferences > profiles > text > Regular font & non ASCII font.
In Terminal : Terminal > preferences > profiles > text > fonts

For me this vim config solved the problem:
g:Powerline_symbols = 'unicode'
In some cases it could also be needed:
set t_Co=256
回答4:
Install powerline-shell fonts and change in your iTerm2 the text's setting with Inconsolata font for exemple.
回答5:
Since you are on iTerm 2, make sure you go into your settings and set both the regular font and the non-ascii font to powerline compatible fonts or the prompt separators and special characters will not display correctly as it is happening in your case.

iTerm2 -> Preferences... -> Text -> Font & Non-ASCII Font -> Choose Inconsolata for Powerline
