[Debian-hebrew-package] Bug#531473: add section to culmus conf in fontconfig

Package: culmus
Version: 0.101-9
Severity: wishlist

We can add to culmus fontconfig settings that will make the culmus fonts
become defaults for Hebrew in case another font is missing hebrew
characters. In my case I use Inconsolata for the console which doesn't
have hebrew characters and the default to hebrew sucked big time. Using
the following snippet made things a lot better:

<match target="font">
        <test name="lang" compare="contains">
                <string>he</string>
        </test>
        <alias>
                <family>sans-serif</family>
                <prefer>
                        <family>Miriam Mono CLM</family> 
                </prefer>
        </alias>
</match>

Cheers,
Baruch
