--- Comment #2 from Akira TAGOH <akira at tagoh.org> ---
Indeed that may be the problem that they are requesting it with FC_FAMILY but
AFAIUC it's not the point here. if there are no such fonts installed on the
system, even if they are expecting to see some serif font, fontconfig returns
sans-serif font according to 49-sanserif.conf. and this endeavor is to guess
their requirement as much as possible. of course they should use
FC_POSTSCRIPT_NAME in this case and we should try to build the better font list
for them, which is missing so far and is the rest of the work around the
postscript name support.

that said it is the fact that this issue may be likely to happen with the usual
query against FC_FAMILY too like we sometimes got a bug, "please add
blahblahblah fonts to xxx-yyy.conf".
