Hi,
On 2021-09-21, Arch Linux updated their Cantarell font package, which
removed classic font with variable fonts. According to Jan Alexander
Steffens (package maintainer):
> Yeah, we only packaged VF because upstream requested to either package
> the classic fonts *or* the variable font. The VF is more powerful as
> it not just contains all the classic weights but can also interpolate
> between them.
But with these changes Emacs in now unable to distinguish between light
and regular weights. To reproduce the bug you would have to:
1. Install latest version of font from upstream:
<https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/cantarell-fonts>
2. Evaluate in "emacs -Q" session:
(progn
(set-face-attribute 'variable-pitch nil :family "Cantarell" :weight 'regular)
(face-font 'variable-pitch))
