Same facebook post in f24 and f25
After upgrading to F25 from F23 I noticed that some pages, e.g. facebook
displayed text in a weird-looking font (see attachment). It seems that after
the upgrade, fontconfig(?) considers TeX Gyre Heros as a more appropriate
Helvetica replacement than Nimbus Sans L.
In F25, fc-match Helvetica yields:
texgyreheros-regular.otf: "TeX Gyre Heros" "Regular"
while in F24:
n019003l.pfb: "Nimbus Sans L" "Regular"
I am looking at a laptop and a desktop, the first running F24 and the latter
F25. They both have n019003l.pfb in /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/ and I can't
find any difference in the rules in /etc/fonts/ nor is there a local file that
overrides these settings. The only obvious difference is the line in which each
font is grep-ped in 45-latin.conf.
In F24:

Is there a setting some place else that I'm overlooking?
