> I can reproduce the problem with the OS config you posted at
> <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/47687>.  With that Xfce-only config,
> /run/current-system/profile lacks ‘font-dejavu’, hence the problem.
> 
> The config in ‘vm-image.tmpl’ does not provide ‘font-dejavu’ but it
> provides ‘font-bitstream-vera’, which does the job.
> 
> ‘font-dejavu’ is propagated by the ‘gnome’ package, which is why there’s
> no such problem when using ‘gnome-desktop-service-type’.  The solution
> is to make sure one of these fonts is always installed by default.
> 
> The attached patch does that.  I’ll go ahead and push it if there are no
