Subject: tex-verbatim face: don't specify :family?
Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2015 15:39:45 -0500

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.
