Therefore, you could remove fontconfig, and keep > encodings around. Oh. The thing is that it's easy to check if encodings/large/fonts.cache-1 is empty and remove it in that case. On the other hand encodings/fonts.cache-1 contains the line pointing to "large" subdir so I was thinking of first removing encodings/large/fonts.cache-1 if it is empty, then encodings/large directory, then running fc-cache on encodings and remove encodings/fonts.cache-1 if it's empty. If fc-config is not present some parsing will be necessary... Is there a way fc-cache could ignore encodings subdirectory? > The strange thing is that fontconfig removes all > fonts.cache-1 files under /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts upon deinstallation. Perhaps generating and removing cache files should be made responsibility of fonts ports? IIRC quite some of them handle it already. That could also avoid running fc-cache with default settings thus avoiding fonts.cache-1 files under encodings. Dejan
