Package: fontconfig-config
Version: 2.11.0-5
Severity: normal

On a fresh install of debian the hacker news website looks wrong, it uses
Verdana which should be replaced with a sans serif font, but the browsers
render the page with a serif font instead.

The output from 'fc-match Verdana' is:

  DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"

I was able to fix the problem locally by creating a fonts.conf with this rule:

<match target="pattern">
    <test name="family" qual="any" >
      <string>Verdana</string>
    </test>
    <edit name="family" mode="prepend" binding="strong">
      <string>DejaVu Sans</string>
    </edit>
</match>
