Re: xfree 4.3.0.2 and XftConfig

Recall, after upgrading xfree from 4.2 to 4.3, then libXft and libfontconfig

My mistake apparently.  I had to run fc-cache (which scans for fonts and
builds fonts.cache-1 files).  I assumed fonts.cache-1 were just for performance,
not strictly required.  I was also surprised that installation didn't
run fc-cache.


It's in the works. I'm working on making fontconfig & freetype external packages, so I plan to contribute post-install scripts to do all the font setup.


Cheers,
Nicholas
