Hi
I am new to fontconfig and don't know how all the innards work. I tried
to look in the docs, but didn't come up with anything.
When I run fc-match Symbol I get Vera.ttf: "Bitstream Vera Sans" "Roman"
When I run fc-match --sort Symbol | head -1 I get:
opens___.ttf: "OpenSymbol" "Regular"
I, of course, want the second to be used in the applications.
I have in /etc/fonts/local.conf .
<alias>
<family>Symbol</family>
<prefer>
<family>OpenSymbol</family>
<family>Standard Symbols L</family>
</prefer>
</alias>
Yes, the results should be the same. I don't quite know why they're
not; that would be a bug.
It seems that <prefer> creates an FcValueBindingWeak (fcxml.c:1417),
which causes the family-name to not get matched by FcFontMatch. If line
1417 created an FcValueBindingStrong instead, fc-match Symbol gives the
apparently right thing. Keith, any insights? Is it a bug in
FcFontMatch (this is in both 2.3.2 and 2.3.94) or in FcFontSort?
