One of the packages I installed yesterday pulled in msttcorefonts. When
Bitstream Vera appeared on the scene, I got used to it quickly and now I
cringe at the sight of Arial and company; unfortunately, most web pages
(even Debian pages!) seem to specify something like
#leftcol {
float: left;
margin: 0px;
margin-right: 0.4em;
padding-right: 0.5em;
width: auto;
background: #BBDDFF;
padding-left: 0px;
font-size: 0.9em;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
(cut and pasted from /debian.css). So, how do I use css or some other
mechanism to prevent it from using Arial and make it default to
sans-serif, which maps to Vera thanks to (I think) fontconfig?
