I didn't think about doing a strace first time round, but here's something.. everything looks fine until: $ strace -o f gnucash ... brk(0x82a0000) = 0x82a0000 open("/usr/lib/X11/locale/locale.alias", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/lib/X11/locale/locale.dir", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/lib/X11/locale/common/xomGeneric.so.2", O_RDONLY) = 9 read(9, "\177ELF\1\1\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\0\3\0\1\0\0\0 \33\0\000"..., 512) = 512 fstat64(9, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=35928, ...}) = 0 mmap2(NULL, 38860, PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_DENYWRITE, 9, 0) = 0xa5d29000 mmap2(0xa5d32000, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED|MAP_DENYWRITE, 9, 0x8) = 0xa5d32000 close(9) = 0 writev(4, [{"1\0\21\0\1\0009\0", 8}, {"-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal"..., 57}, {"\0\0\0", 3}], 3) = 68 read(4, "\1\0C\2\20\0\0\0\1\0\0\0 cr\10X\252\264\257Gi\32\10\4\0"..., 32) = 32 readv(4, [{"?-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-norma"..., 64}, {"", 0}], 2) = 64 [here the errors are printed] ... Might it be that there is a .dir or .alias file missing, so it falls back on xomGeneric.so.2 (whatever that is..)?
