Squares-instead-of-text

Sometimes, when you start Remmina, it shows squares instead of each character in all of Remmina' GUI elements.

This is caused by a broken font cache.

The quick-fix is:

pkill remmina
rm -rf ~/.cache/fontconfig
fc-cache -f -v
sudo rm -rf /var/cache/fontconfig/*
sudo fc-cache -f -v

If you have a snap, you should add also these steps:

sudo rm -f /var/cache/fontconfig
rm -r ~/snap/remmina/common/.cache/fontconfig
rm -f ~/.cache/fontconfig/*

Start Remmina again and the problem should have disappeared.
