For what it's worth: I've been having crashes with Kodi
for months now. Now back on a new system (installed from
my dev branch that is a couple of commits ahead of guix master)
I get a Kodi that has no visible font characters (even with
fonts installed in my profile, and rebooting + fc-cache -vf run)
and an vdpau / nouveau error message on startup.

Were you able to start Kodi before without issues?
