Bug#895662: libfontconfig1: does not distinguish between bold and non-bold

[Sven Joachim]

Package: libfontconfig1
Version: 2.13.0-4
Severity: normal

After upgrading the fontconfig packages from 2.12.6-0.1, my window
manager (icewm) does no longer show window titles and menus in bold,
despite being configured to do so.

This is the font which I have specified for window titles:

,----
| $ fc-match "DejaVu Sans:size=10:bold"
| DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
`----

In 2.12.6, fc-match's output is different:

,----
| $ fc-match "DejaVu Sans:size=10:bold"
| DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Bold"
`----

Very likely this is the same problem as
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105415, although they had
the opposite problem there, getting a bold font unexpectedly.  I will
cherry-pick the upstream fixes for that bug and rebuild fontconfig to
see if they help.
