Bug#892370: Aerial Bold chosen when it should not be

I don't think it is related to the fontconfig config file that we
patch/ship, but have a look at this:

 fc-match -a aerial | head -n 2
Aerial.ttf: "sans" "Regular"
AerialBd.ttf: "Aerial" "Bold"

The regular variant doesn't identify itself as "Aerial" but merely as
"sans", so the Bold variant is the first one known by the name
"Aerial".

Looks like the regular font is broken. Anyway, didn't we decide earlier
in #872766 to drop this package from Debian altogether in favour of
fonts-liberation or fonts-croscore?

I see, I do not see any specific configuration for this in the
fontconfig file shipped by the fonts-arkpandora package. Do you have any
specific web pages which you found this problem?.

Mean while any one else from fonts team have any idea on this issue?. Is
it related to fontconfig configurations?

Hi,

fonts-arkpandora contains a number of fonts, amongst which Aerial and
Aerial Bold.

For some reason, on my system firefox chooses Aerial Bold when it should
instead choose the regular Aerial font. As a result, almost all websites
that I visit are displayed in bold. This is rather annoying.
