Currently monospace fonts are implicitly substituted with sans-serif fonts by default configuration file in fontconfig if missing. However, this is unpredictable behavior and it just happened to work. this behavior might be changed once one install other font packages. This Change aims to make it predictable and assign a tentative default monospace font for languages which is missing them.
Owners, do not implement this work until the FESCo vote has explicitly ended. The Fedora Program Manager will create a tracking bug in Bugzilla for this Change, which is your indication to proceed. See the FESCo ticket policy and the Changes policy for more information.
REMINDER: This ticket is for FESCo members to vote on the proposal. Further discussion should happen in the Discourse discussion linked above. Additional discussion may happen on the Fedora Devel mailing list.
