Public bug reported: I tried to change my monospace font to "Noto Sans Mono Bold" in /etc/fonts/local.conf but that didn't have an effect so I did a little digging. First I ran $ sudo fc-cache -f -v && sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig fontconfig-config
Which succeeded, then: $ fc-list :style=bold | grep -i notosansmono >/usr/share/fonts/truetype/noto/NotoSansMono-Bold.ttf: Noto Sans Mono:style=Bold So then: $fc-query /usr/share/fonts/truetype/noto/NotoSansMono-Bold.ttf | less which seemed to return a normal looking result similar to: $fc-query /usr/share/fonts/truetype/noto/NotoSansMono-Regular.ttf | less Then I ran: $ fc-match -s "monospace" | grep -i bold >DejaVuSansMono-Bold.ttf: "DejaVu Sans Mono" "Bold" >MathJax_Fraktur-Bold.otf: "MathJax_Fraktur" "Bold" >padmaa-Bold.1.1.ttf: "padmaa-Bold.1.1" "Bold.1.1" >DejaVuSans-BoldOblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Bold Oblique" Which obviously isn't right since it isn't in that list. Also: $fc-match -s "NotoSansMono" | grep -i notosansmono >NotoSansMono-Regular.ttf: "Noto Sans Mono" "Regular" My system is up to date and here is my version: $lsb_release -a lsb_release: No LSB modules are available.
