Comment(by hellik):

 Replying to [ticket:2448 annakrat]:
 > With selected cairo driver, d.* commands don't render any labels and you
 get an error:
 >
 > Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
 >

 some further tests:

 - cairo enabled: vector labels are displayed only when d.vect map=myvect
 '''and''' font=myfont (a font name) is given in the command

 - png enabled: vector labels are displayed by the command d.vect
 map=myvect , no font option is needed
