This message made by several programs is misleading:

# ed /etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf
/etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf: No such file or directory
q
# ls /etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf
ls: /etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf: No such file or directory

It should be just "no such file" as indeed there is such a directory:

# ls -d /etc/fonts/conf.d/
/etc/fonts/conf.d/

It must be some C library message. Please reassign this bug for me.

I disagree.


# ed /etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf
/etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf: No such file or directory
q
# ls /etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf
ls: /etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf: No such file or directory

It should be just "no such file" as indeed there is such a directory:

# ls -d /etc/fonts/conf.d/
/etc/fonts/conf.d/
No, there is no such directory /etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf/. The directory /etc/fonts/conf.d/ has nothing to do with the error message. The error message just tells the user that there is no file named /etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf nor a directory named /etc/fonts/conf.d/61-traditional.conf. 

So, closing this bug.

Cheers

Luk
