font-name in conf doesn't apply to the Login block

[wxrl]

 * slick-greeter version (slick-greeter 1.5.1)
 * Distribution - (Debian 11.1)
 * NVIDIA GTX 1050 Ti, 460.91.03
 * 64 bit

Issue

Changing the font-name in /etc/lightdm/slick-greeter.conf only took effect on the top panel (with hostname, time, etc) but the Login block font remains the default font, while the Login block should be for most users the "only area" to focus during login...

Similar problem on Linux Mint 21.1, slick-greeter 1.6.1 I think what needs to be clarified is how the font should be referred to i.e Ubuntu 11
