`skia_use_fontconfig=false` causing problems? #2248

I notice that SkiaSharp.NativeAssets.Linux.NoDependencies is unable to locate my system fonts. Could it be because of this setting? I'm running Guix System, so I don't have an /usr/share/fonts or similar. I guess NixOS users will have the same issue.

NoDependencies means Skia is using a font manager that is only loading fonts via some specific file system location. You can still load your fonts via stream.

I'm using SkiaSharp.NativeAsserts.Linux instead, and patchelf to set rpath to my library folder which contains fontconfig and other necessary libraries.
