Bug#963975: blender: Blender crashes on launch (failed assert)
Package: blender
Version: 2.83.1+dfsg-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Blender 2.83.1+dfsg-1 is crashing on launch with the output shown below. I have
tested this with and without an existing ~/.config/blender/ directory.
$ blender

I have checked that the two fonts mentioned are present on my system. They are
in /usr/share/locale/fonts/ as part of blender-data.
