 Log Message:
 fontconfig: Adjust default preference order to prefer Bitstream Vera
 and Liberation fonts over the Luxi Type1 fonts, which freetype
 struggles to render.  Helps make the default text rendering better in
 e.g.  GTK applications and web browsers.
 
 Luxi Type1 fonts are otherwise the only fonts in this list shipped with
 X11 as standard.
 
 PR xsrc/60991: fontconfig prefers Luxi Type1 fonts for Latin text, which
 are extremely ugly
