I've finally got access to all the fonts on my system (after reverting to fontconfig 2.3.2), and all seems well. But I notice the following warning in my /var/log/XFree86.0.log: (WW) "fonts.dir" not found (or not valid) in "/usr/local/share/fonts". Entry deleted from font path. (Run 'mkfontdir' on "/usr/local/share/fonts"). My naive question is: does fontconfig replace mkfontdir? If not, is there any danger of conflict between them? If I run mkfontdir on one of my top-level font directories, as the warning suggests, could I upset the splendid operation of fontconfig? When I add a font to my system, should I run both mkfontdir and fc-cache?
