Package: fontconfig-config
Version: 2.13.0-4
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
the Inconsolata font doesn't have a bold variant, but until I got the recent
update to 2.13, it displayed text in bold anyway.
I've tracked this magic down to
/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/90-synthetic.conf, which has a rule that sets
"embolden" to true for fonts without a bold variant.
I've fixed this issue for me by changing this part
regular
into this
normal
