I got it to work without the second section, but I also made sure to run the command as root so the system-wide cache file would be modified instead of only a per-user cache file. fontconfig uses per-user cache files only when a system-wide cache file is not found. Yes, this could be considered a misfeature, but it is intentional at least. fc-cache should probably emit a warning when an unwritable cache file already exists for some directory. You can explore the relationship between directories and cache files using the fc-cat command; fc-cat -v will list the directory and associated cache file names: $ fc-cat -v /local/xorg/lib/X11/fonts/TTF | head -2 Directory: /local/xorg/lib/X11/fonts/TTF Cache: /home/keithp/.fontconfig/afd267dbdc00aa02fa799a03524c6f9b-x86.cache-2 If you remove the cache file you can then re-run the command and see if another cache file for the same directory exists on your system. Eventually you should be able to clean your system of cache files for a particular directory. -- keith.packard@xxxxxxxxx
