Nope, I lied. Here are reproduction steps for Ubuntu Edgy:
1. Install tetex-bin.
2. Log out.
3. At the login screen, go to Options > Select Session... Then, select the "Failsafe Terminal" session and login.
4. Run `xdvi` and click "Cancel"
5. Note down xdvi's output
6. Run `dbus-launch` and export the environment variables it spews out.
7. Run `gnome-settings-daemon &`
8. Run `xdvi` and click "Cancel"
9. Note down xdvi's output.
Expected result:
xdvi runs quietly both times.
Actual result:
The second time xdvi is run, in step 9, it reports the following error:
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset
Workaround:
After gnome-settings-daemon starts up, run `xset fp rehash` to
recompute the font paths.
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: xorg => control-center
