Details:

In pspp 1.2.0 it is not possible to change the font via the menu. The
following message is shown:


Theme parsing error: <data>:1:21: Using Pango syntax for the font: style
property is deprecated; please use CSS syntax
Failed to load font css "* {font: Cantarell 17}": <data>:1:9not a number


The reason is that at least in that gtk 3.22.30 version the font setting
requires a different xml format. The way here:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/pspp.git/tree/src/ui/gui/psppire-data-editor.c#n573

does not work. The correct format would be


* {font: 14pt Courier}


The same problem is there for file comment where the monospace font is
selected.
