From a build point of view I think the patch looks ok. I can't comment on if it's safe to remove the fontconfig files though. I've created a bug:

8011693: Remove redundant fontconfig files

Hi!

FontConfig files are no longer necessary for jdk7 and 8. I have patch for
their removal
(http://jvanek.fedorapeople.org/oracle/jdk8/webrevs/removedFontConfigFiles/)
and I have built and
tested - looks ok.
This approach was recommended at -
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/2d-dev/2012-May/002547.html.

To move forward with this issue I would like to have bug id if possible.
Later I would like to
backport this also to JDK7.\

With kind regards
Jiri Vanek



This looks ok to me.  I assume it builds?

sure :)


There seems to generally be a lot of dead code in the jdk repository, which is
very confusing for fixing anything.  Glad to see some of it going.

Let's get it into 8 first, then we can backport to 7. Oracle, can we have a bug ID please?

Trying my luck with [email protected]....
