When I run the following MWE through xelatex it selects Libertinus Serif
Semibold instead of Libertinus Serif Bold unless I set explicitely
[BoldFont = * Bold].
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Libertinus Serif}
\setsansfont{Libertinus Sans}
\begin{document}
Regular text and \textbf{boldface text}
\end{document}
I don't know if this is intended behaviour and when it was introduced.
But I think (but I'm not 100% sure) it was different in TL18.
Also, if this is an issue at all, I don't know whether it needs to be
fixed upstream or whether it is an issue with TL config files. So
please excuse if this is the wrong place to report.
