hi guixers,
what am I missing from qutebrowser to render text from sites like wikipedia and g-golf documentation site?
See this screenshot (will expire in a week):
https://up.nixnet.services/j80xqgx7.png
has anyone else run into this issue?
I'm on guix system and I installed qutebrowser via my guix home profile
Does qutebrowser on guix system require me to explicitly install fonts for it?
all best

Thanks. Could you try adding a few mainstays, such as Bitstream Vera & DejaVu, and make sure that fc-cache -rv returns no errors? (Some being ENOENT is fine).
That usually placates IceCat, at least.

unwox,
Hi, Do you use qutebrowser on Guix system?
Do you know if you had to do anything extra or special to get text font rendering to work on sites like wikipedia?

This is a known bug of qtwebengine, it's not related to your font
settings. It's about glibc and the sandbox of qtwebengine.
See here for more detail:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1164975
It's not fixed because the open source support of Qt 5 series is end. Only
commercial support can get the patch(Qt 5.15.8).
If we want to fix this, we may give the KDE's Qt branch a look. AFAIK,
Archlinux use it.
A simple workaround for your problem is: Disable the sandbox.

Just adding this here as a note to self:
