Thank you! It was Cairo. Upon further inspection, when I "reverted" it |
| 51 |
earlier, I actually masked the new version -- I did not realize the |
| 52 |
second-newest version was also one I had not previously installed. |
| 53 |
After masking >=1.12.2 and reinstalling 1.10.2-r3, everything is back |
| 54 |
to normal. |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
There's apparently something in 1.12.2 that makes fonts invisible on |
| 57 |
my system, or perhaps something I need to rebuild to take advantage of |
| 58 |
it. |

Thanks again, |
