Pay close attention to its output the first time, since running ’$ 
sudo fc-cache’ earlier might have created root-owned caches that 
foul things up and will need to be manually removed (with ‘$ sudo 
rm’) before running ‘$ fc-cache -rv’ a second time.

It's remarkably common.  ‘-r’ already implies ‘-f’ and stands for 
‘really f[orce]’, which is my guess as to why so many brains 
remember ‘-rf’ instead.

Kind regards,
