Package: fontconfig-config
Version: 2.11.0-5
Severity: normal
On a fresh install of debian the hacker news website looks wrong, it uses
Verdana which should be replaced with a sans serif font, but the browsers
render the page with a serif font instead.
The output from 'fc-match Verdana' is:
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
I was able to fix the problem locally by creating a fonts.conf with this rule:
<match target="pattern">
<test name="family" qual="any" >
<string>Verdana</string>
</test>
<edit name="family" mode="prepend" binding="strong">
<string>DejaVu Sans</string>
</edit>
</match>
