tex-verbatim face: don't specify :family? |

Package: emacs
Version: 24.4
Severity: minor
The tex-verbatim face is defined as
'((t :family "courier"))
Is this a good idea?
AFAICS, it is the only face definition in Emacs that specifies a :family.
It seems to cause problems on some systems, see:

For me on RHEL7, that faces looks poor (blocky/pixellated) compared to
the other faces Emacs uses.

I installed the patch into master, to get the ball rolling on that.
Although I had been thinking of installing the patch into emacs-25, I
see that Bug#19759 no longer lists 19889 or 22207 as blockers, which
means emacs-25 is not a suitable place for the patch. (Bug#22207 was a
blocker but I could not reproduce it and so closed it on May 5.)
Bug#19889 says it blocks 19759 as of 2015-12-18 and there is no
indication it was ever unblocked. Conversely, Bug#19759 does not
currently list Bug#19889 as a blocker; I don't know why not. If
Bug#19889 is supposed to still be a blocker, then the patch should be
backported from master to emacs-25.
At any event Bug#19889 seems to be fixed in master, so I am boldly
closing it now; if this is wrong we can always reopen it of course.
