acroread creates a strange directory called "fontconfig"

GOS

Hey guys,

I have the following problem. Everytime I open a .pdf (e.g. /X/Y/Z.pdf) with acroread, it creates the directory /X/Y/fontconfig. Thereby X and Y are arbitrary directories.

Anyone who has the same problem or a clue what to do here or what's wrong with acroread?

Best regards

The problem is fontconfig itsself. If I mask fontconfig-2.10.92 and use fontconfig-2.8.0-r1 instead everything works well. The problem arrises also with the newer unstable version 2.10.93.
