AFAICS, fc-cache is not generating .uuid files anymore.

The problem remains for older installations, but I see that fc-cache 
contains a "-r" flags to delete old cache files and the remaining .uuid 
are being removed with this flag.

That could mitigate the problem I would say

What do you thing?

Kind regards,
