That said you are facing this issue because you didn't do that. once we stop attempting to automatically creating/updating/removing caches, you'll see another problem, "hey, no fonts is available" ;) Thinking of seeing such issues many times, I'm wondering if leaving the cache creation to the users would be really a good idea. -- Akira TAGOH _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
