Re: System font searching suddenly stopped

[Marco Pallante <marco.pallante@gmail.com>]

This solves partially the problem: now it takes the delicious font,
but as default
it uses the heavy weight and not the roman; the \bf command switches to bold
and \it to italic.

If I use \setmainfont[Delicious-Roman], it always uses the roman, and
the \bf and
\it commands doesn't change anything.

Moreover, even if it pickups Delicious, if I run the query
  $ mtxrun --script fonts --list --all --pattern=Delicious*
it gives an empty result.
