I too was annoyed at the lack of manpage. But I found it. If you run "make extract patch" in /usr/ports/x11-fonts/fontconfig, then look in work/fcpackage.2_1/fontconfig/fc-cache, you'll see a "fc-cache.man" that isn't installed by the port. Grrr arrgh! Hopefully this manpage was just overlooked. What possible logic would there be for not installing it? Saving 2040 bytes of storage ?!? I hope not. Gord.
