Can we know the severity of this bug? If no real complaint like this, guess it's not so urgent. that said this issue is most likely to happen when installing font packages and run post scripts parallel, like on anaconda. This is the kinda race condition issue on updating fontconfig cache and fixed in Fedora by checking the mtime of cache files in the nanosecond and update as needed. For details of the changes: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/fontconfig/commit/?id=ad9f5880502c9a3f8e7f8919336888ee056f17ba This requires changing the cache version to extend the member of FcCache to have the nanosecond one. We believe this occurred in Fedora due to Anaconda trying to parallel install packages/scripts, whereas RHEL7 doesn't do this, so it should not be affected. Closing since this doesn't seem to affect RHEL 7. |
