--- Comment #1 from Akira TAGOH <tagoh(a)redhat.com&gt; ---
did you see any different result of fc-match between 2.12.6-4 and 2.12.91-2?
can you see any error or warning messages on the terminal when you run xterm?

If you can't see any difference for the above, please attach both logs of
FC_DEBUG=8 xterm with 2.12.6-4 and 2.12.91-2.

That shouldn't affect on xterm I suppose.

When you revert fontconfig to 2.12.6, did you also revert freetype too?

--- Comment #10 from Akira TAGOH <tagoh(a)redhat.com&gt; ---
Thanks. I've tracked it down. matching rules which was added during <include>
was evaluated prior to rules added before <include>. so even though xterm is
requesting "mono" - which is usually corrected to "monospace" by the
rule in
fonts.conf - 2.12.91 is adding "sans-serif" because none of
"sans-serif",
"serif", "monospace" is in the pattern, then evaluating a rule to
replace
"mono" to "monospace" at the end. so 2.12.91 is returning a sans-serif
font
instead of monospace.

Anyway, will fix that shortly.
