LibreOffice with all three fonts displayed in regular, italic and bold face.
I have installed some company-provided fonts for use in presentations etc.:
$ ls /usr/share/fonts/neo-sans-intel/
NeoSansIntel-Italic.ttf NeoSansIntel-MediumItalic.ttf
NeoSansIntel-LightItalic.ttf NeoSansIntel-Medium.ttf
NeoSansIntel-Light.ttf NeoSansIntel.ttf
In LibreOffice I have a choice of three separate fonts: Neo Sans Intel, Neo
Sans Intel Medium, and Neo Sans Intel Light.
For each of those three, the italic version of the font (from the separate TTF
file) is used. I can tell by the tail on the 'f' character. For bold text,
however, an 'emboldening' algorithm seems to be used instead of using the
appropriate separate font file.
In GNOME font selection dialogs, I see just one 'Neo Sans Intel' family, with a
choice of 8 styles. I'll ignore the italic versions since those do actually
seem to work as expected, so there are four weights listed:
- Light (== Neo Sans Intel Light)
- Regular (== Neo Sans Intel Medium)
- Medium (== Neo Sans Intel Medium)
- Bold (== Neo Sans Intel Medium + emboldening algorithm?)
I *don't* seem to have an option in GNOME which will just use the straight 'Neo
Sans Intel' font.
So both seem to be getting it wrong, in different ways. Or perhaps there's
something wrong with the fonts themselves?

Fedora 35 Missing Georgian characters
Description of problem:
Georgian uppercase letters are shown as squares
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.add Georgian keyboard layout
2.open text editor
3.type Georgian letters and make them uppercase
Actual results:
all characters are shown as replacement boxes
Expected results:
readable text
Additional info:
Georgian uppercase characters were introduced in Unicode 11 (2018), but there's
no font supporting these glyphs in Fedora.
Google Noto fonts include these characters. Noto Georgian fonts are also used
as default in Arch-based distributions and Android.
Please add Google-Noto-Georgian, that provide full support for Georgian script.

Description of problem:
Installing some snaps like codium are having font issues in dialog windows.
This has been widely discussed upstream [1]
Tried multiple workarounds and none of them are working:
~~~
sudo rm /var/cache/fontconfig/*
rm ~/.cache/fontconfig/*
rm -f ~/snap/codium/current/.cache/
fc-cache -r -v
snap run --shell codium
fc-cache -r -v
exit
~~~
I also tried this with VScodium running
Arch wiki [a] suspects it's an issue caused by fontconfig>=2.13.91
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fontconfig-2.13.93-6.fc34.x86_64
snapd-selinux-2.51-1.fc34.noarch
snap-confine-2.51-1.fc34.x86_64
snapd-2.51-1.fc34.x86_64
How reproducible:
All the time
Steps to Reproduce:
1. snap install codium
2. Open Folder dialog or any kind of dialog
Actual results:
All the text is square instead of readable characters
Expected results:
We should be able to read the text.

[Bug 2143521] New: Noto Sans Display Regular substituted for Noto
Sans Regular

Noticed the UI font looked quite different after installing Fedora 37, and this
appears to be why:
╶➤ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name
'Noto Sans 10'
╶➤ fc-match 'Noto Sans'
NotoSans-DisplayRegular.ttf: "Noto Sans" "Display Regular"
This seems to happen unconditionally for all uses of Noto Sans (Regular).
Compare with e.g. Fedora 36:
╶➤ fc-match 'Noto Sans'
NotoSans-Regular.ttf: "Noto Sans" "Regular"
(I'm not sure whether this is the correct package for this report; apologies if
it belongs somewhere else.)
