Package: ttf-dejavu-extra Version: 2.20-1 Severity: wishlist Hello,
the latest update closed bug #440142 [1] and this brought to my attention the fact that some DejaVu variants are called Italic, while others Oblique: ===== [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -L ttf-dejavu-extra | grep Italic /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSerifCondensed-BoldItalic.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSerifCondensed-Italic.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSerif-BoldItalic.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSerif-Italic.ttf [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -L ttf-dejavu-extra | grep Oblique /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed-BoldOblique.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed-Oblique.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans-BoldOblique.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansMono-BoldOblique.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansMono-Oblique.ttf [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ===== This happens in the package description as well. While I'm not a font expert, I guess that italic and oblique refers to the same font variant. This can generates confusion. Could one name can be chosen once for all, please?
