Tell me any command you want the output for (or package to install) to
help solving this issue i will post it here.
I have posted how my guix system configured/built here:
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/47687
I found <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/43293>, which was about the same
issue; the solution was to install ‘font-dejavu’.
I can reproduce the problem with the OS config you posted at
<https://issues.guix.gnu.org/47687>. With that Xfce-only config,
/run/current-system/profile lacks ‘font-dejavu’, hence the problem.
The config in ‘vm-image.tmpl’ does not provide ‘font-dejavu’ but it
provides ‘font-bitstream-vera’, which does the job.
‘font-dejavu’ is propagated by the ‘gnome’ package, which is why there’s
no such problem when using ‘gnome-desktop-service-type’. The solution
is to make sure one of these fonts is always installed by default.
The attached patch does that. I’ll go ahead and push it if there are no
objections.
Thanks for reporting the issue!
Ludo’.
