Comment(by dsd):

 olpc-contents git is http://dev.laptop.org/git/projects/olpc-contents

 This is a strange one, indicates corruption late in the build process.
 This symlink (and another) in /versions/pristine/5/etc/fonts/conf.d is
 bad, pointing at nothing. The one in /versions/run is fine. I've confirmed
 that it is this way in the os5.zd4 file even before booting.

 The version installed in the initial build was fine, as the contents file
 tells us, and the one in /versions/pristine was fine at one point, since
 /verions/run is populated from /versions/pristine during the build
 process. So the corruption must have occurred at a later stage, before
 generating the zd image.

 I rebuilt the image on the same build machine (koji2) and couldn't
 reproduce the issue, and fscheck passed when I installed and tested it.

 I guess we just have to keep our eyes open for now...
