Bug ID: 2113077
Summary: Noto Rashi Hebrew font is selected as serif hebrew
font
Product: Fedora
Version: 36
Status: NEW
Component: google-noto-fonts
Assignee: ta...@redhat.com
Reporter: ma...@svgalib.org
QA Contact: extras...@fedoraproject.org
CC: fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org,

Target Milestone: ---
Classification: Fedora
Description of problem:
After upgrading from Fedora 34 to 36, a GTK program that requests "serif" font
displays hebrew characters in "Noto Rashi Hebrew". The letters in this font are
hardly recognisable as Hebrew letters, and should not be used unless
specifically selected.
Noto fonts version:
20201206-9.fc36
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install google-noto-rashi-hebrew-vf-fonts but not
google-noto-serif-hebrew-vf-fonts
2. Install other serif fonts with Hebrew glyphs
3. Run `fc-match serif:lang=he`
Actual results:
NotoRashiHebrew-VF.ttf: "Noto Rashi Hebrew" "Regular"
Expected results:
Any font other than Rashi font
Additional info:
Rashi cannot be considered a normal Hebrew font.It should not be selected by
default unless it is the only font on the system, and probably not even then.
The family name in
/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/56-google-noto-rashi-hebrew-vf.conf should be
changed to "rashi", or at least anything that is not serif, sans or mono.
