The easiest way would be to use the env var FONTCONFIG_FILE to point it to your custom root config file. And you should tailor your config files to use alternate font and cache directories instead of the defaults. You should in fact be able to get away with a two line config file pointing to your root font dir and tmp cache dir only. behdad _______________________________________________ Fontconfig mailing list Fontconfig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fontconfig
