I am trying to build FC 2.6.0 using MinGW on a Vista machine. The “configure” and “make” commands
run perfectly but when I run “make install” it crashes at this
point: C:/Windows/fonts: caching, new cache contents: 1159 fonts, 0
dirs C:/Users/Qu0ll/AppData/Local/Temp/fontconfig/cache: cleaning
cache directory D:\MSYS\1.0\local\bin\fc-cache.exe: failed C:/Windows/fonts: failed to write cache make[2]: *** [install-data-local] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/Qu0ll/fontconfig-2.6.0' make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/Qu0ll/fontconfig-2.6.0' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 I first thought this might have something to do with Vista
UAC but disabling that hasn’t helped. It appears that it’s
trying to write to a folder on the C: drive and failing. Perhaps it needs
admin privileges though I thought it would inherit those of the Windows user
which is an administrator. Anyway, when I run the test program it fails the basic
check. When I run fc-list on its own it says it can’t find the
default configuration file. How can I resolve these issues? Thanks, -JCT |
