I am using Debian with XFCE.
Default behavior: No match or alias
-----------------------------------------------
First, let me show the default behavior of my system when
~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf has no match or alias tags.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
</fontconfig>
In this case, fc-match outputs the following for Courier and Consolas.
lone@debian:~$ fc-match Courier
n022003l.pfb: "Nimbus Mono L" "Regular"
lone@debian:~$ fc-match Consolas
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
Custom behaviour: When match is defined
--------------------------------------------------------
Now I have the following in ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<!-- Courier => DejaVu Sans Mono -->
<match>
<test name="family"><string>Courier</string></test>
<edit name="family"><string>Deja Vu Sans Mono</string></edit>
</match>
<!-- Consolas => DejaVu Sans Mono -->
<match>
<test name="family"><string>Consolas</string></test>
<edit name="family"><string>Deja Vu Sans Mono</string></edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
In this case, fc-match outputs the following.
lone@debian:~$ fc-match Courier
n022003l.pfb: "Nimbus Mono L" "Regular"
lone@debian:~$ fc-match Consolas
DejaVuSansMono.ttf: "DejaVu Sans Mono" "Book"
Question
------------
Here we see that the system has respected my substitution rule for
Consolas, but it has not respected my substitution rule for Courier.
Why is output of `fc-match Courier` still "Nimbus Mono L" and not
"DejaVu Sans Mono"?
