Hello,

It's my first and my last post here because I've joined to the
mailing list just to share my opinion about the following.

Today in a ubuntu system I've noticed the ~/.fonts.conf
*deprecated* message.

See, I have a bunch of config files in my home directory that I
save to tar.gz every day.  Some of them are:

This is because of a fix for bug 20411: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20411

Incidentally, the reporter of this bug justified it for the same reason that you now regard as a problem (backing up configuration files).

I'm sure you can modify your config backup/distribution script in a way that it uses the new location ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf on all the machines where a fontconfig version >= 2.10 is installed.

On machines where you have write access to /etc (or use a user-defined location for fonts/conf.d) you can also edit 50-user.conf.
