--- Comment #31 from Tobias C. Berner <tcberner@freebsd.org> ---
(In reply to lightside from comment #30)

If I unserstand you correctly, you propose the following=20
1) Create 'fontconfig-2.13,1_2' which cleans up after itself on deinstall (=
i.e.
removes all uiid directories)
2) Once released, update the port to 'fontconfig-2.xx,1' and get rid of the=
 fix
again.

The issue with this idea would be, that not everyone would have updated to =
the
"self-cleaning" version of step 1) before step 2).

Maybe the easiest solution is just to also add a pkg-message which is shown
when upgrading to the next version, telling the user to remove the stale uu=
id
files when upgrading 2).

(The cleanest solution would probably still be to handle it for every font,=
 but
as this state with the libuuid dependency will be very short-lived, this se=
ems
to be very over-kill to me. So I kind of prefer your approach).
