If you notice any regressions with this initscript
compared to the previous one you were using, please
respond with full details of the problem, and exact
error messages you see (if any).  Also indicate if
you are using only stock OS supplied fonts, or fonts
you have added yourself.  It'd be particularly good
to hear feedback from people using lots of 3rd party
fonts, as we do not normally have such fonts for
testing purposes internally.

On FC3 i386 (stock fonts, stock everything.)

# ./xfs restart
Restarting xfs:
Shutting down xfs:                                         [  OK  ]
Starting xfs: ./xfs: line 56: [: missing `]'
                                                          [  OK  ]



Huh me too.  first glance I can't see what the deal is.  I simply did
wget url and moved it. Of course I also had to make it executable.
here is the orig line 56:

   [ -x "$FC_CACHE" ] HOME=/ "$FC_CACHE" $d

here is one with the change I made to get it to work (added &&)

   [ -x "$FC_CACHE" ] && HOME=/ "$FC_CACHE" $d

Is there some environment var. that is letting this work on some boxes
and not others?

FYI this is on a ppc box although I can't see why that would make a
difference.

Naw, it was a bug.  ;)  I tested one script, and uploaded
a different one by mistake.  ;o)  Your bugfix is correct.

Note, the bug wont cause any damage, in case people are worried. ;)
Just causes fc-cache to not get executed.  New uploaded version
fixes that.
