http://code.google.com/p/font-manager/issues/detail?id=38

<<I expect font manager to NOT touch the .fonts.conf file if it already
exists or at least put its content into the suggested .config/font-
manager/local.conf file. If in doubt, it should prompt me for actions.

<<Font manger instead silently overwrites the file without making any
backup or the like. My local settings are thus lost now and I have to
once again look into this to reproduce them.>>


Font Manager overwrites ~/.fonts.conf, moves it to 
~/.config/font-manager/local.conf, but then proceeds to overwrite *that* file 
as well. Any custom settings you have may be lost. Very dangerous. Version 
0.5.7.
