Wrong weight value for Arimo-BoldItalic.ttf

Font

Arimo-BoldItalic.ttf

Where the font came from, and when

https://github.com/googlefonts/noto-fonts/blob/790fcd48bca4b240a8b4d768b5e6bade42ba339e/hinted/ttf/Arimo/Arimo-BoldItalic.ttf

Font Version

1.33

Issue

Running fc-query -f "%{fullname}: %{weight}" ~/Downloads/Arimo-BoldItalic.ttf outputs Arimo Bold Italic: 80 but should output Arimo Bold Italic: 200

This causes fc-match "Arimo:Italic" to output in my machine Arimo-BoldItalic.ttf: "Arimo" "Bold Italic" instead of expected Arimo-Italic.ttf: "Arimo" "Italic"

The other variants have correct weight values:

> fc-query -f "%{fullname}: %{weight}" ~/Downloads/Arimo-Regular.ttf 
Arimo Regular: 80
> fc-query -f "%{fullname}: %{weight}" ~/Downloads/Arimo-Italic.ttf 
Arimo Italic: 80
> fc-query -f "%{fullname}: %{weight}" ~/Downloads/Arimo-Bold.ttf 
Arimo Bold: 200

I use the Arch package ttf-croscore, version 20220502-1, and can confirm this issue, namely that text styled in italics appears in bold italics with the Arimo font. I also noticed that Arimo-BoldItalic.ttf has its font family listed as both Arimo Bold and Arimo and its style as both Bold Italic and Italic. I suspect that this may be an additional contributing factor to the problem.

Update: Upgrading my system's ttf-croscore package to 20220502-3, which changes the font's assigned weight, resolves the issue. The terminal output below is from before the update.

This is not the case for Cousine, for example:

$ fc-query /usr/share/fonts/croscore/Cousine-BoldItalic.ttf
Pattern has 27 elts (size 32)
        family: "Cousine"(s)
        familylang: "en"(s)
        style: "Bold Italic"(s)
        stylelang: "en"(s)
        fullname: "Cousine Bold Italic"(s)

Is this the cause of this:

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1345677#c11

> fc-list |grep Arimo
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/Arimo-Regular.ttf: Arimo:style=Regular
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/Arimo-BoldItalic.ttf: Arimo,Arimo Bold:style=Bold Italic,Italic <<<< !!!!!!!!
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/Arimo-Bold.ttf: Arimo:style=Bold
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/Arimo-Italic.ttf: Arimo:style=Italic

I'm having this issue on OpenSUSE TumbleWeed.
