The default aliases in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf:
<alias>
<family>Bitstream Vera Sans</family>
<family>Helvetica</family>
<family>Arial</family>
<family>Verdana</family>
[snip]
<default><family>sans-serif</family></default>
</alias>
appear to give priority to later fonts: if both Bitstream Vera Sans and
Arial are present, Arial will be sans-serif.
If I move Bitstream Vera Sans entry *after* Arial and Verdana, then it
will be the font selected for sans-serif.
Question: is there another way to specify priority other than sequence?
I'm thinking of filing a bug against fontconfig to move Bitstream Vera
Sans to the end of the list, so it will be selected in preference of
Arial. That would be "The Right Thing," no?
