I am really confused as to what is going on with the DejaVu Sans
typeface.

Sans has four "styles" listed in the GTK font selector: Regular, Italic,
Bold, Bold Italic.

Bitstream Vera has: Roman, Oblique, Bold, Bold Oblique.

DejaVu Sans has:

ExtraLight (works)
Condensed (works)
Book (works, i.e. Regular/Roman)
Oblique (works fine!)
Condensed Book (seems like it should be Condensed Oblique, as it is italicized)
Condensed Bold (works)
Condensed Bold (AGAIN? Also works, but strange that it appears twice)
Bold (works)
Bold Oblique (works)

So it's strange that there is no Condensed Oblique style, yet Condensed
Book seems to fit the bill, and it is selected when you choose "DejaVu
Sans", "Italic". I don't get it! :(

"Sans Italic" is noticably thinner than "Sans"
