[Fontconfig] Extrange behaviour of fontconfig 2.3.93 (II)
This is very weird. Now I have reinstalled 2.3.93 and now the problem is gone. I don''t know where the problem could have been. If anyone has any clue, or want for me to do some testing... If not... it seems the problem gone. Thanks. Luis Miguel Garc?a Mancebo

The problem is most likely that your cache was not uptodate, so it had to generate ~/.fonts.cache-2 - but as the directory''s modification time is checked against the cache time, it''s very often out of date if you wrote something to your home directory (which happens pretty often as many log files are there). The fix is to a) not have fonts in your home directory directory (but subdirs) and b) run fc-cache as root after fontconfig updates. Greetings, Stephan
