bah..doesn't belong in 'Infastructure'. Instead should be in 'all projects'. Can someone please fix that?

EDIT: This is not a caskroom.io issue. This also occurs with the .dmg downloaded through SF directly.

Not sure this is a Scribus issue, but a packaging issue with fontconfig. On Linux there is a /etc/fonts.conf file which is the default.

@plinnel didn't find an /etc/fonts.conf on OSX
Does this means something is not loading correctly with fontconfig ?

Adding note as requested.

Scribus 1.4.5 on OSX produces:

Path = /Applications/Scribus.app
"scpaths: bundle at /Applications/Scribus.app:"
"scpaths: doc dir=/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/doc/scribus/"
"scpaths: icon dir=/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/scribus/icons/"
"scpaths: font dir=/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/scribus/fonts/"
"scpaths: sample dir=/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/scribus/samples/"
"scpaths: script dir=/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/scribus/scripts/"
"scpaths: template dir=/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/share/scribus/templates/"
"scpaths: lib dir=/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/lib/"
"scpaths: plugin dir=/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/lib/"
"scpaths: qtplugins=/Developer/Applications/Qt/plugins:/Applications/Scribus.app/Contents/MacOS"

And Scribus starts normally as expected.

19792 shouldn't have had any affect on this stuff.
