yes, agreed.
The following workaround should clean up the situation for most installations:
find /etc/fonts/conf.avail/ -type d -empty -delete
interestingly, that finds one remaining entry for me, although I am no
longer seeing the munin-tickled fontconfig errors:
$ find /etc/fonts/conf.avail/ -type d -empty
/etc/fonts/conf.avail/65-0-fonts-smc.conf
should I remove this dir (and/or pkg) too, perhaps?
I have the feeling, that this bug (for the munin package) can remain closed.
And we just hope that all affected users (of these fonts or munin itself) find
this information here helpful for cleaning the situation up manually.
Yes, definitely so, that was partly the reason I added details of how I
resolved it for my system.
thanks again,
calum.
