Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: fontconfig

I've the Adobe Type 1 "basic types" package which includes Helvetica and
Helvetica Narrow fonts.

I think I've installed them correctly:
$ fc-list | grep Helveti
Helvetica:style=Narrow Bold
Helvetica:style=Oblique
Helvetica:style=Narrow
Helvetica:style=Bold
Helvetica:style=Narrow Oblique
Helvetica:style=Regular
Helvetica:style=Narrow Bold Oblique
Helvetica:style=Bold Oblique

but

$ fc-match Helvetica:Oblique
hvno____.pfb: "Helvetica" "Narrow Oblique"

I'd have expected hvo______.pfb, "Hevetica" "Oblique".  And worse, fc-
match -s doesn't even present the correct result in its list.
