Bug Description

At the bottom of the language list there is a language written with 4 squares (I suppose it is chinese given the langpacks installed on the device)

Characters in this language are not supported and rendered as square all over the UI (cf screenshot)

Thanks but that's not a settings bug, we should probably seed the font needed to render those chars... (we can't "install on demand" for v1, the image ir ro and we didn't discuss a way to overlay langpacks yet)

I think this is a dupe of this issue which has some good repro steps. The problem is not in the system settings, its in the font fallback in Qt.
