Do `M-x set-frame-font RET' on a build using a fontconfig-based font
driver (such as ftcrhb) and hit TAB.  There will be many fonts like
this:

  -1ASC-Liberation Mono-regular-italic-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
  -1ASC-Liberation Mono-regular-normal-normal-*-*-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1

Where the weight specification is `regular'.  The documentation for the
`weight' spec, however, says:

‘:weight’
     Font weight—one of the symbols (from densest to faintest)
     ‘ultra-bold’, ‘extra-bold’, ‘bold’, ‘semi-bold’, ‘normal’,
     ‘semi-light’, ‘light’, ‘extra-light’, or ‘ultra-light’.  On text
     terminals which support variable-brightness text, any weight
     greater than normal is displayed as extra bright, and any weight
     less than normal is displayed as half-bright.

Which doesn't include `regular' as a valid weight.  In Emacs 28, the
same fonts' weight attributes are also simply `normal'.

Thanks, fixed.

Shouldn't the documentation in the Lisp reference manual about the
`:weight' face attribute be fixed as well?

Also, what's the difference between normal and regular?

Thanks.

Feel free to make the same change there.

> Also, what's the difference between normal and regular?

No difference.  They are different names for the same weight.  That's
why I used "a.k.a." in the doc string.

Thanks.  Before I make the change, I need to ask if those will work when
set as face attributes, correct?

Thanks.

Yes, of course.  See the beginning of font.c.
