Hello,
I have defined the Bitstream Vera Serif as my preferred serif
font in my ~/.fonts.conf:
<alias>
<family>serif</family>
<prefer>
<family>Bitstream Vera Serif</family>
<family>URW Palladio L</family>
<family>FreeSerif</family>
</prefer>
</alias>
However, that particular font just seems to be ignored. When I
select the font "serif" I get the URW Palladio L. Aside from that
this font works well, so I guess it's fontconfig related.
Does anybody ken how to fix this... thing?
