For the submitter the problem is fixed but i have checked and have the
same problem with 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 ...

sqaure is "delta and the near equal sign" divide is empty 

Sorry to reopen it. I had it on my todo and hope to find out what is
happening before christmas .

locale fr_FR.UTF-8@euro

The buttons label comes from XCalc ressource file:

XCalc*ti.button20.font:         -adobe-symbol-*-*-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*
XCalc*ti.button20.label:        \270
XCalc*ti.button20.translations: #override<Btn1Down>,<Btn1Up>:divide()unset()

XCalc*ti.button3.font:          -adobe-symbol-*-*-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*
XCalc*ti.button3.label:         \140
XCalc*ti.button3.translations: #override<Btn1Down>,<Btn1Up>:squareRoot()unset()


same for XCalc.hp.*

i first guessed that this font was missing/broken on my setup though pi
works and is
: XCalc*ti.button16.font:         -adobe-symbol-*-*-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*
XCalc*ti.button16.label:        \160
XCalc*ti.button16.translations: #override<Btn1Down>,<Btn1Up>:pi()unset()



I will dig this up as soon as i learn more about x core fonts ...
