Bug Description

Binary package hint: yelp

When I boot to the live CD for the 10.10 i386 Desktop beta, and I click Help | About, I see strange characters instead of letters where the menu should be.

They look like boxes with numbers in them.

I tried to get a screenshot, but that screenshot app crashed. I'm filing a separate report on that.

It also happens with the system installed.
Only the menu bar shows the strange characters. The options inside the menu are ok.
