The following text is obsolete, because there is no /etc/fonts/*.conf file, and DejaVu is known to Fontconfig-2.4.2 by default:
> Earlier it was mentioned that |/etc/fonts/fonts.conf| could be > modified to use DejaVu using the default family names. Since DejaVu is > a replacement for Bitstream Vera fonts, it can be substituted for that > family. Visually inspect the |fonts.conf| to see how fonts are grouped > together under the generic family names within <alias> tags and a > preference list is created within <prefer> tags. To replace Bitstream > Vera with DejaVu, run the following command as the |root| user: > > sed -i 's/<family>Bitstream Vera/<family>DejaVu/' /etc/fonts/fonts.conf > > To see which fonts will be used as the generic fonts in your locale, > run the command *fc-match monospace*. Substitute "sans" or "serif" to > see the fonts that will be used for those aliases. > (thanks to Archaic for spotting this) -- Alexander E.
