I am getting the following warning/error when running some octave files. I have installed octave using homebrew following the guide here. Seems like I have to remove the line from the config, but couldn't find where it is stored.

Fontconfig warning: line 146: blank doesn't take any effect anymore. please remove it from your fonts.conf

The warning happens because when you upgraded fontconfig, it did not overwrite the old fonts.conf file.

In my case, the full path was /usr/local/etc/fonts/fonts.conf

To solve the issue remove (or rename) the old fonts.conf file and reinstall fontconfig.

mv /usr/local/etc/fonts/fonts.conf /usr/local/etc/fonts/fonts.conf.bak
brew reinstall fontconfig

The file will be regenerated automatically for the new version.

If fontconfig has been installed via homebrew, the file is located here: /usr/local/etc/fonts/fonts.conf

See brew info fontconfig to test if the package has been installed.

Should be here:

~/Library/Fonts/fonts.conf
