Wouldn't we be better off freeing the cache we have and loading it from disk? That way we can mmap it.

Then we still fail. How about trying OLD, OLD2, OLD3? OLD files will still be use if there's an application mapping them still. For example, even with your patch, the second time you install fonts, it may fail. behdad > Feedback is of course always welcome. > > Best, > > Diego > > -- > Diego Santa Cruz, PhD > Technology Architect > _________________________________ > SpinetiX S.A. > Rue des Terreaux 17 > 1003, Lausanne, Switzerland > T +41 21 341 15 50 > F +41 21 311 19 56 > diego.santacruz@xxxxxxxxxxxx > http://www.spinetix.com > _________________________________ > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > Fontconfig mailing list > Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
