In that case, the present issue is about a bug in the XQuartz installer process, which should have generated proper caches initially.ī) Or XQuartz fc-cache is wrong, for whatever reason the caches are fine and fc-cache should be quiet and exit fast. because the file format changed (But then, how can X11 still run after installing XQuartz?) Otherwise, it seems very similar to the old about 2.7.5.Ī) Either disagreement is normal, e.g. X11 fc-cache finds everything is fine, while XQuartz fc-cache wants to recache *every* directory and fails at that, each time XQuartz starts. What seems to distinguish my bug report from other ones about fc-cache is that X11 fc-cache and XQuartz disagree. One instance is reported as _startx, the other is in Konsole.app.
When XQuartz starts, the CPU gets 100% busy for one minute, while two instances of fc-cache produce error messages.
