Hi Nicolas,
I'm not sure how others feel, but CC'ing this list on any font-related
bug in fedora and GNOME sounds a bit excessive to me. In particular,
upstream bugs are just that, upstream. Nothing fedora-specific to them.

Product: gtk+
Version: 2.12.x
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: gtk
AssignedTo: gtk-bugs(a)gtk.org
ReportedBy: Nicolas.Mailhot(a)LaPoste.net

GNOME version: Unspecified

More and more fonts are available with more than the 4 legacy
regular/italic/bold/bold italic styles (dejavu is such an example)
If you make such a font the default "Sans" "Serif" or
"Monospace", however,
only the 4 legacy styles will be exposed via the "Sans" "Serif" or
"Monospace" aliases
