I just upgraded to karmic beta, and I'm having trouble figuring out how to use dejavu instead of vera for my terminal font. I had
XTerm*font: -bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-bold-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-c-*-iso10646-1
(I know that encoding probably wasn't ideal, but it was working) but it's not found in karmic.

If I use xfontsel, I can find dejavu sans mono r, but the only pxlsizes available are 0 and 17, neither of which are anywhere close to the vera sans mono 12.

Please help ... is there some package I'm missing to get dejavu to take the place of vera? I have ttf-dejavu, ttf-dejavu-core and ttf-dejavu-extra installed.
