The way that fontconfig works is to install a whole list of template configuration files into .../conf.avail, and then symlinks are placed into conf.d to pick up the configuration you actually want. The OpenIndiana build appears to trample all over this. There's a minor bug, in that you can use --with-templatedir='/etc/fonts/conf.avail' rather than the current mechanism of leaving it at the default /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail and moving it after the install. But the actual problem is caused by creating symbolic links in conf.d for *all* the files in conf.avail, rather than (a) either leaving the links that 'make install' creates alone, or (b) removing and recreating only the symlinks that are present in conf.d (the way that solaris-userland does it, where it notes that 'Make links in conf.d be relative links to ../conf.avail instead of absolute'). > Jul 31, 2024, 08:07 by openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org: > > > For example, github.com.
