Description Petri Lipponen 2005-01-14 11:32:36 UTC 
Start GIMP 2.2.x in windows (tried 2.2 & 2.2.1)
When gimp startup splash reports "Lookin for data files: Fonts"
the progress is halted, CPU runs hot (laptop) and HD crunches. "Fonts" part
takes more than a minute.
In 2.0 this part was much faster (about x10) in same computer.
GIMP & GTK installed from "automated installer"
Comment 1 Sven Neumann 2005-01-14 13:12:31 UTC 
Delete the file .fonts.cache-1 in your homedir. GIMP will then recreate the font
cache on next startup.
Comment 2 Dave Neary 2005-01-14 13:21:27 UTC 
Resolving as a duplicate of bug #154968. We should probably try to figure out
why the original .font.cache-1 is not being correctly generated (or whether it
is the GIMP which is generating an incorrect font cache).
