Sorry, I cannot follow you because you are not posting the exact commands you run with fc-list and the exact output; and you are not posting using code tags, etc. You are posting fragments which are not a complete picture for others to follow.

When posting and asking others for help, you need to be precise, exact and post all commands you run and the exact output, not fragments of outputs like you have been doing.

Your core problem, as I see it, is that you have not installed your fonts properly and when you list the fonts using fc-list, it is not showing the fonts you need; and you are not using a step-by-step method to install and list a new font, in my view. You are lacking, or so it seems to be, a step-by-step troubleshooting method to understand what is going on.

You have listed fonts (in a much earlier post) that are not in the directories in the fonts.conf file and posted "all is there" but in fact, you are seemingly not understanding the basics of the fontconfig setup for Linux systems. You seeming are confusing X11 with fontconfig in Linux.

Anyway, that's what it seems to me reading your posts and replies.

I don't see how we can help if you are going to issue commands on your system (and not post the command you issued) and then post only fragments of the output. Troubleshooting a problem requires a methodical step-by-step method, and you seem not to have a methodical, step-by-step method in this case.

DH_INSTALLXFONTS(1)						     Debhelper						       DH_INSTALLXFONTS(1)

NAME
       dh_installxfonts - register X fonts

SYNOPSIS
       dh_installxfonts [debhelperoptions]

DESCRIPTION
       dh_installxfonts is a debhelper program that is responsible for registering X fonts, so their corresponding fonts.dir, fonts.alias, and
       fonts.scale be rebuilt properly at install time.

       Before calling this program, you should have installed any X fonts provided by your package into the appropriate location in the package
       build directory, and if you have fonts.alias or fonts.scale files, you should install them into the correct location under etc/X11/fonts in
       your package build directory.

       Your package should depend on xfonts-utils so that the update-fonts-* commands are available. (This program adds that dependency to
       ${misc:Depends}.)

       This program automatically generates the postinst and postrm commands needed to register X fonts. These commands are inserted into the
       maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb. See dh_installdeb(1) for an explanation of how this works.

NOTES
       See update-fonts-alias(8), update-fonts-scale(8), and update-fonts-dir(8) for more information about X font installation.

       See Debian policy, section 11.8.5. for details about doing fonts the Debian way.

SEE ALSO
       debhelper(7)

       This program is a part of debhelper.
