(In reply to lightside from comment #30)
If I unserstand you correctly, you propose the following
1) Create 'fontconfig-2.13,1_2' which cleans up after itself on deinstall (i.e.
removes all uiid directories)
2) Once released, update the port to 'fontconfig-2.xx,1' and get rid of the fix
again.
The issue with this idea would be, that not everyone would have updated to the
"self-cleaning" version of step 1) before step 2).
Maybe the easiest solution is just to also add a pkg-message which is shown
when upgrading to the next version, telling the user to remove the stale uuid
files when upgrading 2).
(The cleanest solution would probably still be to handle it for every font, but
as this state with the libuuid dependency will be very short-lived, this seems
to be very over-kill to me. So I kind of prefer your approach).
