Not sure what you mean here.  Fontconfig cannot be removed from
/gnu/store without first removing all the graphical applications in
there (almost all them depend on Fontconfig indirectly).

Ah I didn't considerr this. I installed fontconffig in my profile because without it Emacs would mess up the fonts.

I didn't consider that something else depends on it too.

 

Did you try refreshing the font cache using “fc-cache -f”?

I hadn't. Now I have and it seems it doesn't help

According to the image you posted

you’re using gnome-terminal.  How did you install it?  Are you using
‘gnome-desktop-service’ on GuixSD, or something else?

Yes, gnome-desktop-service on GuixSD

 

If you’re using ‘gnome-desktop-service’ on GuixSD, can you reproduce the
problem if you build a VM of your system, with ‘guix system vm’, and run
the terminal in there?

Ok, here is a picture taken from a brand new vm image running in quemu

It's good, I'd say

I pressed send by mistake

This is the command line I used to create the image

guix system vm-image /etc/vm-config-desktop.scm \
   --image-size=30GB \
   --share=$HOME=/exchange

and this is the command line I used to run it (ater having copied the image out o the store)

qemu-system-x86_64 \
 -net user,hostfwd=tcp::10022-:22 \
 -net nic,model=virtio \
 -enable-kvm -m 4096 /home/catonano/projects/qemu-image
