from man fc-cache:
NAME
       fc-cache,  fonts.cache  -  create  an index of FreeType font files i=
n a
       directory

It's normally run when you add new fonts to your system. Of course if you u=
se=20
kde's font control panel or something similar, it runs fc-cache for you.
It's part of X & lives in /usr/X11R6/bin/

When you install linux-base, is installs a linux version too=20
(under /usr/compat/linux), but it appears to use the FBSD configuration=20
somehow, since running fc-cache fixes the cache for linux apps as well as=20
native ones.
