Hello,

I'm trying to convert a few images with a nixery image containing imagemagick.

Using the image:

nixery.dev/shell/coreutils/gnutar/gnumake/tree/fontconfig/libcap/go/gcc/imagemagick/pngquant/librsvg

When my script attempts to convert images using the imagemagick convert utility, I get the following errors:

converting... emacutor-color.svg
 -> PNG: 16x16
Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file: No such file: (null)
Fontconfig error: No writable cache directories
Fontconfig error: No writable cache directories
Fontconfig error: No writable cache directories
Fontconfig error: No writable cache directories

upon further inspection there doesnt appear to be anything in /etc/fonts, specifically the fonts.conf file that fontconfig is meant to generate.
