midori not allowing to select "Monaco" as a fixed-width font family

[je-vv]

Monaco is a monospaced font:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monaco_(typeface)
https://github.com/todylu/monaco.ttf

And I'm using its TTF version. However for some reason, I can't select it as a Fixed-width Font Family, under the "Fonts" tab on "Preferences".

For some weird reason it can be selected as a Proportional Font Family, being that it's a monospace fixed width one.

Firefox doesn't have problems selecting Monaco as its fixed width monospace font...

Notice the font is available:

% fc-list | 'grep' -i monaco
/usr/share/fonts/TTF/Monaco_Linux.ttf: Monaco:style=Regular

Midori calls "pango_font_family_is_monospace" to determine whether a font is monospace. There are fonts for which this function seems to return the wrong value.

As a workaround, you can edit the configuration file directly, in "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}/midori/config". Change the "monospace-font-family=Whatever" line to "monospace-font-family=Monaco".

Workaround worked out quite well, :-) Thanks. Hopefully the bug will get solved though.
