Hi Michael,

thanks for the message!

I don't know why I never saw the response of Eli (never filed a bug 
report before, probably should subscribe to the mailing list...).

*Currently everything is working* :)

I'm on Manjaro and assuming the font-hypothesis is true, an update must 
have fixed it. I tried a quick web-search but could not find anything on 
that. I didn't change the font either.

Best,

Max
