OK, let’s try this.

Need to get 51.6 MB/75.3 MB of archives.
After this operation, 281 MB of additional disk space will be used.
(I even know why this wants to remove sysvinit-core, it’s
dconf-gsettings-backend;
if I pre-installed gconf-gsettings-backend it wouldn’t do that, but let’s not
care about that, it shouldn’t influence this.)
Then I run this outside of the chroot to temporarily allow X11:
tglase@tglase-nb:~ $ sudo mount --bind /tmp
/var/cache/pbuilder/build/cow.31670/tmp
tglase@tglase-nb:~ $ cp $XAUTHORITY /var/cache/pbuilder/build/cow.31670/tmp/
Then I can do this:
(pbuild31684-sid)root@tglase-nb:/# XAUTHORITY=/tmp/.Xauthority DISPLAY=:0
qemu-system-i386
Then I go to View → compatmonitor0… and see text õÕ
Good, we know it’s something in the configuration.
I’ve tried copying my .config/fontconfig/fonts.conf and
~/.local/share/fonts/ over and did this:
(pbuild31684-sid)root@tglase-nb:~# cd /etc/fonts/conf.d
(pbuild31684-sid)root@tglase-nb:/etc/fonts/conf.d# rm 70-no-bitmaps.conf
(pbuild31684-sid)root@tglase-nb:/etc/fonts/conf.d# ln -s
/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/70-force-bitmaps.conf
.(pbuild31684-sid)root@tglase-nb:/etc/fonts/conf.d# ln -s
/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/70-yes-bitmaps.conf .
(pbuild31684-sid)root@tglase-nb:/etc/fonts/conf.d# rm 10-scale-bitmap-fonts.conf
(pbuild31684-sid)root@tglase-nb:/etc/fonts/conf.d# ln -s
/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/10-autohint.conf .
(pbuild31684-sid)root@tglase-nb:/etc/fonts/conf.d# ln -s
/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/10-no-sub-pixel.conf .
Still no success.
Then, on a hunch, I did this *outside* the chroot:
tglase@tglase-nb:~ $ env -i PATH=$PATH DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY
qemu-system-i386
And, shockingly, text!
Quick check:
tglase@tglase-nb:~ $ qemu-system-i386
… still broken. Huh, so… environment variables…
… no, after trying them all, that wasn’t it. HOME?
tglase@:~ $ HOME=/ qemu-system-i386
… yes, HOME. So, something in my home…
(ages of debugging later) so it _is_ my .config/fontconfig/fonts.conf file.
After installing xfonts-base in the chroot and putting the
following into the chroot’s fonts.conf file…
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<alias>
<family>monospace</family>
<prefer>
<family>Fixed</family>
</prefer>
</alias>
</fontconfig>
… I can reproduce this in the chroot. It seems like the window
has problems matching characters to glyphs with a BDF/PCF font
(although the squares’ content IS rendered in the BDF/PCF font).
Remember this is with the above conf.d changes still intact, as
otherwise it would not have used the bitmap font.
