A few letters were switched out for other letters, and most numbers went "off". This happened as I set off a list-package upgrade, switched away to a different program, and then switched back. https://ericabrahamsen.net/garbled.jpg In that screenshot I'd done "C-u C-x =" on a capital "R", which was displaying as a capital "P". I'm running Emacs master on Arch linux, using the Wayland protocol with the sway window manager. Everything seemed to work fine (including input), just text displayed wrong. It went away after a restart. I guess I'd be surprised if the problem came back, and I'm not really expecting any bug hunting here. But I thought it might be useful to log what happened. Happy to provide any other information of interest. Eric
