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.
