I''m planning on doing some fontconfig cleanup work this week and wanted to get feedback on the changes I''m going to do. The first planned change is to only place font cache files in /var/cache/fontconfig and (a directory) ~/.fontconfig. The separate per-user global cache file will go away. Along with it a huge pile of code. The second change I''d like to make is to make each cache file hold information for a single architecture; append the architecture ID to the end of the cache file name so we''ve got: <md5-sum>-<architecture>.<version> This should eliminate more miles of code, and make mmaping the files more sensible. I think both of these changes will be reasonably easy to do; they don''t fundementally change how things work. I also want to fix FcMatch so that it reliably generates the first font that would be returned by FcList; that''s just a bug at this point. The goal is to get to 2.4 at some point, without a huge number of additional major changes. -- keith.packard@intel.com -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
