No, I haven't. I upgraded from within my tmux session and suddenly all
my panes had junk in them. I don't normally log out or reboot except
for kernel updates.
I would appreciate it if you'd work with upstream to get them to remove
the code that prints these messages. There's no legitimate reason for a
shared library to print anything unless explicitly requested by the
calling application .
This would be less of an issue if fontconfig didn't reload config files
in existing processes.
