--- Comment #1 from Akira TAGOH <akira at tagoh.org> ---
I'd say this is not a bug. there are still a workaround/improvement to deal
with "blah blah blah isn't serif but fc-match sans-serif returns blah blah
blah" though, without installed fonts, I'd not care "blah blah blah is serif
but fc-match blah blah blah returns sans-serif fonts".

Given that the family name contains "serif" word, it could guesses one may be
asking for serif font. but in this case, there are no way to guess if one is
asking for serif. adding everything to see if the family name in the pattern is
serif makes no sense.

If you want to get any serif fonts anyway, you should do fc-match serif
instead.
