• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Matt Whitlock 2007-12-14 13:47:05 UTC]

# emerge =media-fonts/dejavu-2.20
...
# fc-match sans
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
# fc-match sans:italic
DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Oblique"

# emerge =media-fonts/dejavu-2.22
...
# fc-match sans
DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"
# fc-match sans:italic
DejaVuSansCondensed-Oblique.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Condensed Book"

I think this was a problem in dejavu-2.21, too.

I can confirm this.
However I don't see this with dejavu-2.21. Only with 2.22.

[Comment 2 Matt Whitlock 2007-12-15 00:11:35 UTC]

rm /usr/share/fonts/dejavu/*Condensed* ; fc-cache -fsv

Fixed my problem. :)

I don't really like the condensed variants anyway.

Thank you for report.  This bug is reported upstream too:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13720

Now 2.22 is hardmasked. Hope this'll be fixed in next version.
