[Nix-dev] Packaging up a prebuilt software that needs fonts

Hi,

I'm trying to package up https://code-industry.net/masterpdfeditor/ for 
Linux. I've managed to use patchelf to set the interpreter and rpath.

The application is now launching, and everything seems to work except 
text insertion. When I try it, it complains about fonts not being able 
to be loaded.

Checking the settings shows that fonts are not being found at all, 
there's no list of fonts to choose from.

What's the proper solution to debug this? Strace?

Thanks,

Roger
