In addition I want to remember (from issue 87708), that there is a problem using
older templates, which include DejaVu Sans Condensed as font, since now OO
doesn't know this font any more*), but gives the possibility to choose DejaVu
Sans and the font style "condensed" (which unfortunately at the moment doesn't
difer from style "book" (and also condesed bold = bold and so on) which is a bug
too I guess**) ).

*) http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page says, the font still
exists. Seems that OO (or some part of linux) just doesn't recognise it. On the
other hand it would be very strange having a font "DejaVu Sans Condensed" and a
font "DejaVu Sans" with the style "condensed".**)

**) And right: http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page says,
there is no style condensed(!) (In contradiction to the primary description of
this issue(!))

So OO (or linux?) should recognize DejaVu Sans Condensed as font (which maybe is
a problem of linux, not of OO) 
and 
OO should not list "condensed" as available font-style for DejaVu Sans (wich is
a (new?) OO-bug)!!!
