I'm still able to reproduce this in 0.92 on Fedora 25. I had some text
in an SVG that was rendered as Normal in Inkscape, but was set to Bold
in the UI. The PDF export showed the 'faux bold' effect since my system
does not have the proper bold version of the font. Additionally, when
clicking the style dropdown in the UI, the only available option was
'Normal' even though the initial setting was 'Bold'.

** Attachment added: "Example of initial setting and available settings."

Title:
  ubuntu condensed bold font not shown correctly inside inkscape

Status in Inkscape:
  New
Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in inkscape package in Fedora:
  New

Bug description:
  ubuntu condensed font with the bold weight is not rendered properly
  inside inkscape, as can be seen from the attachments. in fact,
  inkscape shows the normal weight font instead. the wrong font also
  appears when exported to bitmap or when converted to paths. on the
  other hand, save as pdf produces a correct font, and viewing the
  inkscape svg file with, say, geeque, also shows the correct font.

  this might be relevant to other fonts also, but i did not check.

  while this bug report is filed from ubuntu 13.04, the same thing is
  observed on a fully updated 13.10.
