Segfault when starting anki on wayland (Arch Linux)

Anki Help

On my machine (Arch Linux with Wayland), on both the prepackaged builds and when compiling anki from source, this error appears when starting it:

Starting Anki 25.09.4...
  File "/usr/bin/anki", line 8, in <module>
    sys.exit(run())

    traceback.print_stack()
resetting corrupt _global
Segmentation fault         (core dumped) anki

The error persists when ANKI_WAYLAND and DISABLE_QT5_COMPAT are set, and QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS doesn’t reveal any other errors, I have updated my system and installed qt6-wayland and qt6-imageformats

Fixed by running `fc-cache -rv`, the issue appears to be a corrupted fontconfig cache after a driver update
