In the Raring Puppy builds, we are getting a fontconfig error message when start any application.
The problem is in file /etc/fonts/fonts.conf, in template 'xorg_base' in Woof.

Upup Raring by using latest woofUsername: pemasu
Barry Kauler believed I might create Ubuntu Raring packages based, up-to-date woof built Puppy. http://bkhome.org/archive/blog2/201303/ppm-gui-filtering.html I have now woofed Upup Raring using up to date woof. If you want to test those latest woof improvements: xft dpi 96, gtk3 theme partial support, PPM gui apps dropdown selection, and help finding possible bugs in them, here is link to the announcement: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=85244

"/etc/fonts/local.conf has two parts disabled aka commented (upnorth) . Precise Puppies don't look nice if it comes to firefox . Have un-commented them and Firefox renders properly now. Look is cleaner . Found that 01micko has re-anabled them, too in Slacko-5.5 .
