Title:
  fontconfig confuses bold and medium weights

Status in Fontconfig - Font Configuration Library:
  Confirmed
Status in Pango - Layout and Text Rendering LIbrary:
  Unknown
Status in “fontconfig” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “pango” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Attempts to set "Ubuntu Bold" in the Appearance settings fall back to
  "Ubuntu Medium". In fact, in the font selection screen there seems to
  be no difference between bold and medium.

  Curiously enough, Bug #746382 sort of proves that Ubuntu Bold *is*
  installed and accessible.
