oh. please dont do that. besides from general security hazards, doing
this calls for troubles and usually does not help (except for cases
where you already ran them as root before!!); running this as root
creates files/caches as root in some system directories and that might
also cause issues lateron, when the user cannot recreate/invalidate
those.

usually font config caches work quite well, i would think that you had a
manually setup (and most likely broken):

> .fonts.conf
