fc-cache -?
usage: fc-cache [-fvV?] [--force] [--verbose] [--version] [--help]
[dirs]
Build font information caches in [dirs]
(all directories in font configuration by default).

  -f, --force  scan directories with apparently valid caches
  -v, --verbosedisplay status information while busy
  -V, --versiondisplay font config version and exit
  -?, --help   display this help and exit

It has a -v option:

# fc-cache -v

fc-cache problem

2003-02-13 Thread stan
After a long trail of tears, during which I received significant help from
various kind members of this list. I have discovered the underlying cause
(I'm fairly certain) of my inoperan;e Galeon/Mozilla binaries.

It turns out that something called fc-cache is apparently getting into a
infinite loop. 

The bad news is that I can't find any man page, or other documentation on
what this program does, and how to use it. I'm looking for something like a
-v option, so I can try to diagnose where it's looping. It's provide any
the fontconfig port, which is a dependency for both Mozilla, and Galeon,
among others, so I can't just delete this port.

Pointers to docs appreciated.
