Good afternoon.
I've recently upgraded my machine. The following packages where upgraded:
[10/14/06 13:15] upgraded freetype2 (2.1.10-4 -> 2.2.1-3)
[10/14/06 13:15] warning: extracting /etc/fonts/fonts.conf as /etc/fonts/fonts.conf.pacnew
[10/14/06 13:15] upgraded fontconfig (2.3.2-7 -> 2.4.1-2)
[10/14/06 13:18] upgraded pango (1.14.5-1 -> 1.14.7-1)
[10/14/06 13:19] upgraded php (5.1.6-2 -> 5.1.6-3)
[10/14/06 13:20] upgraded ttf-dejavu (2.10-2 -> 2.10-3)Since that upgrade, my desktop applications take ages to start.
I believe it has something to do with fontconfig, as I got the following messages after installing it:
/usr/share/fonts: failed to write cache
/usr/share/fonts/100dpi: failed to write cache
/usr/share/fonts/75dpi: failed to write cache
/usr/share/fonts/TTF: failed to write cache

/usr/share/fonts/encodings/large: failed to write cache
/usr/share/fonts/misc: failed to write cache
/usr/share/fonts/util: failed to write cache
/home/.fonts: failed to write cacheDoes anyone have any idea as to how I can fix this?
Thanks.

Also had this problem.
Do you have a /etc/fonts/fonts.conf.pacnew file? Then rename that to /etc/fonts/fonts.conf (maybe you want to back up your original file there, but I think the syntax changed and you have to reedit that).
I also deleted my /etc/fonts/local.conf file.
That helped.
Cheers,

Replacing my fonts.conf with fonts.conf.pacnew was sufficient.
Thank you Blind.
