--- Comment #5 from Akira TAGOH tagoh@redhat.com --- This isn't an issue in fontconfig even. this would rather be an application issue or rendering library where deal with file handles of fonts. fontconfig provides an API to let them know if fonts are being updated. they have a way to know that (but there are no way to know which one was updated...) If they don't reopen a font when updating, the behavior may depends how they open it. that is likely to see such issue anyway.
