Since you’re on Debian, then you can do something like <

sudo apt —reinstall fonts-dejavu-coreThat worked! Actually the command was "sudo apt-get install --reinstall fonts-dejavu-core". Now both Pd and [text2d] find their fonts, thanks!
hmm, you are experiencing a bug in the "gem" package as shipped with Ubuntu.
please report a bug against the "gem" package (using the
reportbugcmdline tool), describing your problem.Never reported a bug before. Also never heard of the
reportbugcmdline tool. I'm only aware of the "Report a bug" from Pd's help menu. Should I use that? I guess I should open a new ticket, right?
no. when i said "use the 'reportbug' cmdline tool" i meant "please use the 'reportbug' cmdline" tool, like that:
reportbug gem
'reportbug' is a tool installed on Debian and derivatives to report bugs against system installed packages. since the bug you are experiencing has nothing to do with Gem itself but *only* with the "gem" package provided by your distribution, you should report a bug with your distribution, and not on the pd-gem sourceforge bugtracker (and not at all at the pure-data sourceforge bugtracker).
this is explained here
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/reportbug
(ah yes, 'reportbug' is for reporting bugs against Debian, not necessarily against ubuntu; since i believe that he bug is really in the Debian packaging (Ubuntu usually doesn't add much on top of the Debian packages), it should probably reported as I said)
