Thanks.  I'm sure that I've seen this PFAPFA bug before, but I cannot
remember when/where.  Han-Wen, ideas?

Maybe it is just pango or fontconfig not being able to find the font
or their configuration file.

The --verbose output (I guess before it's redirected to the .log file)
should tell us that.

Hmm.  I'm not sure how to fix this.

Yes it does.

The uninstaller wants to write the same context menu, and removes it
upon uninstallation.  Maybe noone has used the context menu, but just
drag and drops.
