Comment 1 Gwyn Ciesla 2021-11-22 19:47:19 UTC
This is a Tor Browser bug, not a torbrowser-launcher bug, please file upstream.

Comment 2 pjp 2021-11-24 06:28:53 UTC
This seems to happen due to a glitch in the fontconfig file

../torbrowser/tbb/x86_64/tor-browser_en-US/Browser/TorBrowser/Data/fontconfig/fonts.conf

<!-- Font directory list -->

        <dir prefix="relative">fonts</dir>

<!--

Add prefix="relative" parameter to the above element. Hope it helps.
