To make sure symbols still get rendered properly, we need to install
the ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols package. Then make sure the below symlink
is present to make it work.
ln -s /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/10-nerd-font-symbols.conf /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-nerd-font-symbols.conf
The vanilla JetBrains Mono does not render some ligatures like =>
properly which made us use nerd-fonts package. However, the nerd-fonts
jetbrains-mono font seems to sometimes cause problems with kitty not
recognizing it by the standard name. Could be a fontconfig issue as well.
Switch to Victor Mono which also has ligature support and does not seem
to suffer from the problem above. We need the nerd-fonts version as well
due to nvim-web-devicons requiring patched fonts.
Deploying the fontconfig change seems to make the devicons in the
neovim status line render better at least size wise.
