Thank you for reminding and sorry for late response on this. I was on
long holidays.

As of the discussion on the list, Keith's changes doesn't address the
original purpose - allow sharing caches on bind-mounts in flatpaks.
particularly for the case where flatpaks uses same location in
sandbox. this is the reason why it can't be merged into master.
So just reverting the change that removes .uuid file only when a
directory has empty is done in master so far. if you have .uuid file
prior to run fc-cache, your issue could be worked around at this
moment. for more details, you can check what Alex Larsson said on this
list.
