Package: fontconfig-config
Version: 2.15.0-2.4
Severity: serious
Hi,
fontconfig-config fails to install with /usr/local being mounted read-only:
chmod: changing permissions of '/usr/local/share/fonts': Read-only file system
dpkg: error processing package fontconfig-config (--configure):
installed fontconfig-config package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
(should be l. 167 and the next in the postinst).
The packaging files stored in salsa seem to be correct though ;).
Cheers,
Stefan.
