If you want to get the family names of older versions of the DejaVu
fonts back, i.e. “DejaVu Sans Condensed" instead of
“DejaVu Sans:style=Condensed”,
you can create a /etc/fonts/local.conf as follows as a
temporary *workaround*:
mfabian@magellan:~$ cat /etc/fonts/local.conf
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<!-- local system customization file -->
<fontconfig>
<match target="scan">
<test name="family" compare="eq">
<string>DejaVu Sans</string>
</test>
<test name="style" compare="eq">
<string>Condensed</string>
<string>Condensed Bold</string>
<string>Condensed Bold Oblique</string>
<string>Condensed Oblique</string>
</test>
<edit name="family" mode="assign">
<string>DejaVu Sans Condensed</string>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
mfabian@magellan:~$
Run “/usr/sbin/fonts-config -v -f” or “fc-cache -v -f” as root after
doing that. Then you have the old names of the Dejavu condensed fonts
back.
But that is only a *workaround* and I will *not* add this to the
default SuSE fontconfig setup (for the reasons explained in the
threads on the fontconfig and the dejavu mailing list: the
applications need to be fixed, we can’t pile up such workaround
for all such fonts). The name change in the DejaVu fonts was
intentional, this is not a bug in the fonts.
