Upgrading to 12.10 created a "~/fontconfig" folder but did not delete it

[Agmenor]

I upgraded from Ubuntu 12.04 to 12.10. In the process, a folder called "~/fontconfig" was created and not deleted. This happened on my two machines.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Edwin Lee (leeed2001)]

Same exact thing happened to me, deleting that folder now.

This folder got created when I upgraded from 12.04 LTS to 14.04.1 LTS using the software updates tool "upgrade to a new LTS release" method.

Three years and this bug is still marked just as "Confirmed"? Oh, boy...

I'm in a fresh 14.04, not upgraded. Suddenly "fontconfig" folder is created at Home. I deleted, but reapared. I would like to change folder location. Maybe changing path of ignote file configuration
