Description of problem:
There are some problems with DejaVu LGC Serif Condensed Italic font, which make
it unavailable to gtk font selector and fc-list.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
fontconfig-2.6.0-3.fc10

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start gedit
2. Go to edit → preferences → fonts and colours
3. Uncheck system fonts usage, start font selector
4. Pick dejavu lgc serif

Actual results:
There are two “Condensed” entries in the styles box, but there is no condensed
italic.

Expected results:
Condensed and Condensed Italic are both present once.

Additional info:
[jsikorski snowball ~]$ rpm -ql dejavu-lgc-fonts | grep Serif
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuLGCSerif-Bold.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuLGCSerif-BoldItalic.ttf

/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuLGCSerifCondensed.ttf
[jsikorski snowball ~]$ fc-list | grep LGC | grep Serif
DejaVu LGC Serif:style=Italic

nim-nim found out the following:
[nim arekh ~]$ fc-query /usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSerifCondensed-Italic.ttf
|grep style:
<nim-nim>  style: "Condensed"(s) "Book"(s)
<nim-nim> [nim arekh ~]$ fc-query
/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed-Oblique.ttf |grep style
<nim-nim>  style: "Condensed Oblique"(s) "Oblique"(s)

He said that this could be some  “Oblique” vs “Italic” problem. Also, bug
#466678 might be related, but I'm not sure about that.
