** Description changed: [FFe request comment] Upgrading to fontconfig 2.11.94 is proposed as a fix of this bug, including a fix of certain font weight issues due to the switch from fonts-droid to fonts-noto-cjk for Chinese (discussed at bug #1468027) where we haven't found any way to work around the problem. The proposed upload is available in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/ubuntu/fontconfig-test2 + + Changes are listed in the attachment upstream_git-log.txt [Original description including updates] See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81453 and bug 1468027. Fontconfig lacks support for many OpenType/TrueType OS/2 font weight values. This causes a bunch of problems, like mixing up Demilight (weight=350) and Regular (weight=400). Although it's possible to write (dirty?) hacks for deb-packed fonts, this still causes problems for otherwise sourced fonts. Archlinux: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/48550 (fix released, upgraded to 2.11.94)
