bug#54121: Calibre doesn't display text in interface.

Calibre isn't displaying any text in its book view interface (see 
screenshot). Even after I delete all the calibre configuration files in 
.config and .local/share the problem persists. I do not know if this is 
specific to guix or a problem generally with Calibre  5.36.

This is the case when calibre is run in the following ways (with the 
cache and configs deleted in between):
~/guix-home/profile/bin/calibre

~/guix-profile/bin/calibre

guix shell calibre -- calibre

guix shell --pure calibre -- calibre

guix time-machine -- shell calibre -- calibre

I merged this with #54033, which seems to be the same bug:
