Yes, "Bold" works as well. The explanation is that each font has two
family names: One which is prepended with the font weight and one which
is not.

$ fc-list : family | grep 'Noto Sans CJK SC'
Noto Sans CJK SC,Noto Sans CJK SC Light
Noto Sans CJK SC,Noto Sans CJK SC Regular
Noto Sans CJK SC,Noto Sans CJK SC Medium
Noto Sans CJK SC,Noto Sans CJK SC Bold
Noto Sans CJK SC,Noto Sans CJK SC Black
Noto Sans CJK SC,Noto Sans CJK SC Thin
Noto Sans CJK SC,Noto Sans CJK SC DemiLight

There is a built-in priority order in NotoSansCJK.ttc by default, where
"DemiLight" has been given first priority. Maybe there is a thought
behind it. Controlling it via fontconfig .conf files is possibly not a
workaround; possibly that's how it's supposed to work.

The question, I think, is if we *want* to change the default priority
order.

Title:
  change default CJK fonts to Noto CJK

Status in Fontconfig:
  Confirmed
Status in fonts-noto-cjk package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in language-selector package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  just realize that fonts-noto-cjk is available in the repository, finally its 
packaged.
  i don't really know about korean community.
  But for Chinese and Japanese community, i think that the answer is clear.
  noto-cjk is definitely better what we had before, like fonts- wqy and 
fonts-droid.
  Android community had received these complains for years, finally they got 
them fixed on lollipop.
  Fedora also set it as default chinese font start from F21.
  and of course, i still hope that ubuntu could drop those 69-language-selector 
fontconfig files, just like what F13 did.
