Explicitly running fc-cache $HOME/.fonts does, though. So I noticed this behaviour: 1. sudo fc-cache 2. get /var/cache/fontconfig cache for $HOME/.fonts which is owned by root; fc-cache as user then cannot remove /var/cache/fontconfig cache (eek) 3. fc-cache as user fails to remove /var/cache/fontconfig cache for .fonts, but updates the .fonts directory, so that the /var/cache/fontconfig cache is now stale. 4. fc-cache as user then succeeds. If there is no /var/cache/fontconfig cache for $HOME/.fonts then everything should be fine. > Once the caches in $HOME/.fonts were updated, fc-list : stopped creating > the global cache. Right, there should be no need to do so. pat _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
