Description Marco Menardi 2012-12-19 01:18:09 UTC 
The uninstall progress indicator has the labels unreadable because there are empty squares instead of the characters. Only numbers (i.e. 32%) are ok.
I've used an Italian XP-32 OS. Installation progress dialog is ok instead (in english).

Confirmed with Windows XP.

Vista 64: font size very small, only numbers have correct font size (but unusual font)

dialog box during uninstall

I don't think is a duplicate, since bug #58144 seems almost solved, while this one seems totally untouched by RC1

The uninstaller dialog is unreadable in 4.0.0 RC1 (under Windows XP SP3). Only squares show up. This is a regression from all previous releases.

Windows XP only problem.

Please, believe me, I know what I'm talking about, it a dupe of bug 58144.

Bug 58144 is fixed, but this still occurs with the current versions of LibreOffice. In the MSI logfile it can be seen it uses Tahoma 8, which is installed and works normally.

From what I can see this was never confirmed by QA team - moving to UNCONFIRMED to get their confirmation.

Cosmetic bug in an unsupported OS will never be dealt with realistically.
