    settings: Don't reload config for fontconfig if there's no fontmap · 4b92d656
    Neil Roberts authored
    If anything in the system changes the config for fontconfig then an
    XSetting will be set to record the last timestamp of the config file.
    This is presumably so that applications can be notified that it has
    changed and can reload the configuration. However once this setting is
    set it will remain set for the lifetime of the X server. This causes
    Clutter to handle the setting during the initialisation of the
    backend. Previously this would cause problems because Clutter would
    end up creating the default PangoFontMap before the backend has
    created the CoglContext. The PangoFontMap would in turn cause the
    default CoglContext to be created. Clutter will then later create its
    own CoglContext which means there will be two and the first one will
    be leaked. Cogl currently can't really cope with multiple contexts
    being created so it falls apart.
    
    This patch fixes it to skip reloading the config for fontconfig if
    there isn't a default font map yet. The config will presumably
    naturally be read with the latest values when it is finally created
    anyway so it doesn't need to be read immediately.
