--- Comment #6 from Holger Arnold 2010-11-16 11:06:46 UTC ---
UTF-8-encoded input files can be also processed by TeX by using the inputenc
package, but I assume that XeTeX does a few additional things (I don't use
XeTeX myself, so I can't say much about it).
The explanation of bug #588156 is a bit strange and I doubt that making the TeX
fonts available to fontconfig helps with this problem. "Linux Libertine" is
*not* a TeX font and is *not* stored under /usr/share/texmf/fonts/. Therefore,
how can the presence or absence of this directory in the fontconfig search path
have any influence on whether "Linux Libertine" is available to XeTeX?
(Contrary to what Christian writes in his bug report, this is also not what is
described in the ArchLinux Wiki.)
Anyway, if XeTeX requires that the TeX fonts be available to fontconfig, then
the link in /etc/fonts/conf.d/ should be created by the texlive-xetex package,
not by the general texlive package.
