Hmm, I thought the problem would be fixed by patch from Takashi
preferring /var/cache/fontconfig files instead of the one in directory
but it still isn't.
The code removes the fonts.cache-2 file in the directory and then the
hashed cache file, and I've confirmed this behaviour. I've committed an
additional patch which makes it not bail if it sees a fonts.cache-2 and
fails to remove it; this is sort of inconvenient, but fontconfig can
live with it.
Here's a bug that probably already exists in 2.3.2 but is only important
now: if you mount /usr as read-only, then fc-cache skips generating
caches in /var since it thinks it doesn't have access to /usr and won't
be able to generate caches.
Running fc-cache several times still generate recreate cache
in /var/cache/fontconfig.
I guess there is still some side effect somewhere..
I can't trigger this part of the bug. For me it erases the
fonts.cache-2 file, or triggers the bug I mentioned above.
