G-sleutel 8vb visible in panel but not in score
The screenshot shows it.
This is about an installation on Fedora 21.
BTW, I love version 2.
However, installation on Fedora is troublesome with lack of spec-file / rpm, but that is another issue.

Looks like you have an older incompatible version of one of MuseScore's font installed - probably MScore or MScore1, maybe Bravura. Make sure none of these fonts is installed; MuseScore must be able to use its own internal version.

I indeed, I have mscore fonts installed. Currently, beside the 2.0 version (manually installed with "make install) I have also the 1.3 version installed (as rpm).
The mscore fonts are installed indeed:
$ rpm -qa | fgrep -i mscore | fgrep font
mscore-fonts-1.3-8.fc21.noarch
$ rpm -ql mscore-fonts-1.3-8.fc21.noarch
/usr/share/appdata/mscore.metainfo.xml
/usr/share/fonts/mscore
/usr/share/fonts/mscore/mscore-20.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/mscore/mscore-MuseJazz.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/mscore/mscore1-20.ttf
I can remove the mscore-fonts-1.3-8.fc21.noarch rpm, but that would remove the complete musescore 1.3 release. And since the Songbook-app for iOS is not yet ready for 2.0 (at least, that is what I was told) I prefer to keep version 1.3 until that is solved.
Is there another way than removing the fonts?

Well, you are not *supposed* to have the fonts installed for 1.3. There was an bug in one of Linux packages for 1.3 that erroneously installed the fonts; they were supposed to be compiled in to the application itself. It's possible an updated package for 1.3 would fix this error, in which case you could uninstall your current 1.3 package and install the corrected one.

When I remove only the fonts:
# rpm --nodeps -e mscore-fonts-1.3-8.fc21.noarch
and start musecore:
$ /usr/bin/mscore
Mscore: fatal error: cannot load internal font
So, it looks I need another rpm to get a proper 1.3 version installed. Where can I get it?
How long will it take before Songbook in iOS is ready for version 2.0? If that is done I can forget about 1.3! :-)

Regarding the Songbook app for iOS opening 2.0 scores: the app update is currently under review by Apple. We hope to have some good news by the end of the week. Fingers crossed.

FYI:
Regarding the statement that "There was an bug in one of Linux packages for 1.3 that erroneously installed the fonts", it looks like RedHat has done that on purpose. From the spec-file for creating the 1.3-rpm:
Patch0: %{name}-use-default-soundfont.patch
# We don't build the common files (font files, wallpapers, demo song, instrument
# list) into the binary executable to reduce its size. This is also useful to
# inform the users about the existence of different choices for common files.
# The font files need to be separated due to the font packaging guidelines.
If have no strong opnion on it, but to me it looks reasonable...
In reply to FYI: Regarding the statement by heraldb
It was a decision against the intention of the Musescore developers and now bites the users, so it was a bad decision...

Well, I would say that we see conflicting approaches and that problems can be fixed by changing one of them ;-)

BTW: removing mscore-fonts-1.3-8.fc21.noarch indeed solved the issue!
