Short story for unstable users: unstable is currently borked due
to the C++ transition. Wait until kde 3.4.? enters sid and the
error will go way.
Longer story for sarge (and curious sid) users:

I get those too if I start kfontview in a slogin user@host shell,
not when started in a KDE session (via KDM). I.e, the msg come
from the KDE daemons that are started. Nothing to worry about.
> kfontview: WARNING: KXMLGUIClient::setXMLFile: cannot find .rc file kfontviewui.rc
This file is wasn't available/was forgotten in KDE 3.3 upstream.
It was added in KDE 3.4:
$ svn ls --recursive svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.3/kdebase/kcontrol/kfontinst | fgrep .rc
viewpart/kfontviewpart.rc
$ svn ls --recursive svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.4/kdebase/kcontrol/kfontinst | fgrep .rc
viewpart/kfontviewpart.rc
viewpart/kfontviewui.rc
svn log svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.4/kdebase/kcontrol/kfontinst/viewpart/kfontviewui.rc

Fixed runtime warning
kfontview: WARNING: KXMLGUIClient::setXMLFile: cannot find .rc file kfontviewui.rc
It's quite unusual to have no .rc file, so I'd rather not hide the warning.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
To fix it:
svn cat svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.4/kdebase/kcontrol/kfontinst/viewpart/kfontviewui.rc > kfontviewui.rc
and copy this file as root to /usr/share/apps/kfontinst/

that's a temporary sid/unstable problem. Does not happen with sarge.

Happen only for slogin -X user@host, not for KDE session (maybe at logout)
nothing to worry about IMHO.
