Hello,
Well... how many people are still using 0.43 vs. how many people have a font list problem, either on Windows or on Linux?
I really think this part of the wiki needs cleaning/rewriting. I would do it myself, but I have already too many things to edit... :-(
Also, deleting the font cache, to my knowledge, is a common fix for a lot of fonts problems, and I don't see why, if it was recommended as a workaround for 0.43, it wouldn't be still valid for 0.46 or 0.47 :-)
Anyway, after cleaning my own font cache and seeing that it's not the fix for my problem on 0.47, anyone has a workaround for https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/165665 , please? I'd be most grateful :-)
Regards!

Later versions use the system font cache, so .fonts.cache-1 doesn't exist. You're not supposed to delete your system's font cache in either circumstance. Telling where the system cache is might lead to confusion and cause people to delete their system font caches, which does nothing for this bug and may damage your system.
