It may be a video driver problem. See this thread.

The dialog in your screenshot is a standard MessageBox. KeePass provides the icon, main text and button types (not texts), and the rest (drawing, input handling, etc.) is handled by the framework. So, this is a bug in Mono, not in KeePass.

Thanks and best regards,
Dominik

For anyone else coming across this, I found the underlying cause of the problem which I documented here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1073237

It isn't a great solution, but you can work around the issue by compiling your own libgdiplus without libpango support.
