Public bug reported:
I have a BGR display so I really would like to have BGR subpixel
rendering. I'm having major trouble getting fc-match to emit correct
info.
$ fc-match -v | grep -E 'rgba|lcdfilter|antialias|hintstyle|dpi'
antialias: True(w)
hintstyle: 2(i)(w)
dpi: 75(f)(s)
rgba: 1(i)(w)
lcdfilter: 1(i)(w)
$ ls -l /etc/fonts/conf.d/10*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 2016-08-16 22:18 /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-antialias.conf

$ strace -e trace=file fc-match -v 2>&1 | grep "open.*bgr"
open("/etc/fonts/conf.d/10-sub-pixel-bgr.conf", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 5
$ gsettings list-recursively | grep bgr
com.canonical.unity-greeter xft-rgba 'bgr'
org.cinnamon.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings rgba-order 'bgr'
org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings rgba-order 'bgr'
org.cinnamon.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings rgba-order 'bgr'
org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.xsettings rgba-order 'bgr'
org.mate.font-rendering rgba-order 'bgr'
Is there some documented reason that fc-match fails to report correct
subpixel order given this config? Is there some another configuration
file that I must modify or create to get fc-match to correctly declare
BGR subpixel structure?
Also, the dpi above is incorrect too, the correct value would be near
96.
