Why this strange behavior is happening and how to fix it?



Details:



I have configured fallback Glagolitic font in fonts.conf:



<alias>
<family>sans-serif</family>
<prefer>
...
<family>Noto Sans Glagolitic</family>
...
</prefer>
</family>
</alias>


And this works as expected everywhere:



Everything is fine



Except the firefox, which render chars in FreeSans for some reason.
BUT if I set a font-weight to bold it's choose the right font:



enter image description here



This is make no sense because 'Noto Sans Glagolitic' is not a bold font but a regular one:



$ fc-cat | grep Glagol
"NotoSansGlagolitic-Regular.ttf" 0 "Noto Sans Glagolitic:
familylang=en:style=Regular:stylelang=en:fullname=Noto Sans Glagolitic:
fullnamelang=en:slant=0:weight=80:width=100:...


It doesn't even have bold version! (It had tried to autobold it, but I have disabled this)
