[Matthias Klose <matthias.klose@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The fact that installing ttf-dejavu works around the problem shows that
some of the fallback fonts lead to the selection of the non mono font.
So there is some fontconfig information wrong (and it shows up with both
openjdk-6 and usn-java6).

The other issue is that we should maybe update the fontconfig.properties
not to use DejaVu anymore, but the default font (which is?)

Bug description:
Binary package hint: fontconfig

First noticed in IntelliJ IDEA (java IDE): All italic text in editor is non-monospace in ubuntu 10.04. It has always been monospace in all previous versions of ubuntu.

Can be reproduced in JEdit too:
1. Open/Create any.sh file
2. Type in two lines:
_miii
#miii
3. Go to "Utilities-> Quick Settings -> Edit syntax style of token under caret" and select italic (so comments will be shown italic).

Result: Width of two lines is different, non-monospace font is used.
Expected: Comments are italic but still monospace.
