For the LilyPond website binary (GUB-generated binary), fontconfig cache directory is `~/.lilypond-fonts.cache-2`. https://github.com/gperciva/gub/blob/87efb1105d976dfbecf8f3c9c6c9c869a2158bbb/gub/specs/lilypond.py#L130 For other binaries, fontconfig cache directory seems to be the default of fontconfig. e.g. `~/.cache/fontconfig` etc. _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
