           Summary: wine startup scans all fonts, takes ages
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC-x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: felix-wine at fefe.de


wine startup takes ages for me, particularly the first time.  I have about 3500
fonts installed on my system, and wine opens all the files at startup.  This
takes 15-20 seconds on my moderately fast PC.  I find this completely
unacceptable.  We already have TWO font databases to avoid exactly this
unnecessary work: fontconfig and the "Software\\Wine\\Fonts\\External Fonts"
key in user.reg.

Please give me a way to stop this.
