see bug 7410 as reference

We can check if the fontconfig cache has been generated during build by checking if /var/cache/fontconfig is empty in the image
Comment 1 Ross Burton 2015-04-02 14:34:37 UTC 
Obviously the test should verify that the fontcache should be written at all by looking for font packages being installed first.
Comment 2 Jose Perez C 2017-08-30 15:52:05 UTC 
Moved to 2.5 due resources constraint
Comment 3 Armin Kuster 2019-12-22 20:15:16 UTC 
do we still want to do this?
Comment 4 Randy MacLeod 2020-01-30 16:22:33 UTC 
Such a test is not useful because images usually have fonts installed.
The test would be complex and isn't worthwhile.
