You also removed /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts,
/usr/share/texmf-dist/fonts/opentype,
/usr/share/texmf-dist/fonts/truetype, and
/usr/share/texmf-dist/fonts/type1.  Was that intentional?


Yes, because it seems that they would also have this issue because 
nothing in the providing packages updates the cache.  (cygport only 
generates fontconfig postinstall scripts for /usr/share/fonts.)

I don't know about the ghostscript fonts, but cygport does generate the 
appropriate fc-cache commands in the postinstall scripts for the 
texlive-collection-* packages that install fonts.  This is done in 
__prep_texlive() in src_postinst.cygpart.
