That makes me think that you have multiple libfontconfig installed --
some using non-existent config.
I did a locate and there is only one libfontconfig on my system.
I did mess around with the fontconfig, see my original post...
I tried tracing startkde, but didn't really find a clue. In the
.xsession_errors file I get:
strace needs switches to follow children too.
Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
Maybe try:
strings /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so | egrep "/.*(conf|font)"
Or wherever your libfontconfig is at.
That worked for me on two systems to show where my configuration
directory was at.
It returns
/fonts.cache-1
~/.fonts.cache-1
/etc/fonts
/usr/share/fonts
there is a config file in /etc/fonts, but not in /usr/share/fonts, that
directory doesn't exist.
what to do now?
