Bug Description

Several fonts, including the Deja Vu family, do not show up in the profile
settings of gnome-terminal on Breezy. The fonts are correctly installed (via the
package) and show up in gnome-font-properties, abiword, open-office and other
applications. I'm not sure how long this hasn't been working, because I only
recently atempted to change from Bitstream Vera to Deja Vu.

If one of the "missing" fonts is chosen as the gnome default, and a
gnome-terminal profile is set to use the default font, it appears to use the
font (one one similar) with the kerning screwed up. A screenshot can be attached
if it will help.
