I know similar questions have been asked here and the problem came and went
time and again for me personally, but here I am, a new Guix/PopOs installation
and icecat throwing fits.
The icecat GUI (including the input text boxes), as well as some websites
display blocks instead of characters. Some other websites do show fonts
correctly.
Possibly relevant errors:
...

The abovementioned Nimbus Sans does show up in my fc-list:

I have installed font-dejavu and font-liberation (as well as some other fonts)
and I also installed fontconfig from guix. That fc-cache has been run in '-f'
and '-r' forms. I have also tried with the system's /usr/bin/fc-cache. Both
XDG_DATA_DIRS and XDG_CONFIG_DIRS have been set.
I am running a multiprofile setup, similar to the one described in the cookbook
(https://guix.gnu.org/cookbook/en/guix-cookbook.html#Advanced-package-management)
icecat version: GNU IceCat 68.4.1esr
guix version: 09bad3cd42ca51974f3697f04ce841bf2fe6786c
