Sorry for the tardy reply. Between too many hours
spent finishing a project and some much needed
rest/recovery after finishing it I have not been
monitoring the list as I would like to.

I certainly agree that fontconfig should not be
overwriting an existing local.conf file, but I think
it should install a default/minimal one if it does not
already exist. One place where this is currently a
problem is that the postinstall script for LyX appends
its information to an existing file. It does not
create a local.conf file if one does not already
exist. Maybe this behavior should be considered a LyX
bug and the subject line changed to reflect this.

This comment was referring to the previous script. The
current script looks more than adequate!
