calling for testers of this omni-tarball that should work in all distros: https://www.zrythm.org/downloads/lxxip96p71x21jfg8adld85jls3cxqwb-tarball-pack.tar.xz

1. extract with `tar xf lxxip96p71x21jfg8adld85jls3cxqwb-tarball-pack.tar.xz`
2. run `LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib opt/zrythm/bin/zrythm_launch`
3. let us know if it works please!

@zrythm It works, but something wrong with the text.

@zarp thanks for testing! it seems everyone has this issue, will investigate

I had a similar problem whit icecat,
That I fixed installing also font-dejavu and font-liberation.
Try to add in your package definition this two pack. As dependence.
If it doesn't work try to find out which font your pack. Use.

I solved this with icecat's problem reading some otherone config.scm around the internet.

Definitely this is a odd thing of #guix

@mandraker @zarp i tried adding font-dejavu and cantarell fonts and a couple of others as propagated-inputs but it still didnt work. will try liberation next, thanks!

Got a similar issue with packages installed (Emacs, Meld) using Guix on Ubuntu. It was a font issue

@jeko @mandraker @zarp did you manage to solve it?

@zrythm @mandraker @zarp

According to the Guix documentation, I installed these three fonts with my guix on ubuntu : gs-fonts, font-dejavu, and font-gnu-freefont-ttf
And it fixed the issue

@zrythm @mandraker @zarp

I don't know which one was necessary but does not matter to me haha.

@jeko @mandraker @zarp thanks! will try a rebuild soon
