That''s fixed in version 2.3.0 (and 2.3.1).

Hi, today i was asking fontconfig to give me a condensed font and i was 
getting Vera all the time, i wondered if i had no condensed font so i fired 
xfontsel, selected condensed on sWdth and saw i have only one, Nimbus Sans L 
Condensed, but then i remembered fc-list and did 
$ fc-list : width
:width=87
:width=100

So fontconfig was not seeing any condensed font (75), may it be becasue i did 
not have Nimbus Sans L Condensed correctly configured and fontconfig did not 
see it? then i did
$ fc-list : family width | grep "Nimbus Sans"
Nimbus Sans L:width=100
Nimbus Sans L Condensed:width=100

And wop, fontconfig says "Nimbus Sans L Condensed" is not really
condensed.

Who is buggy xfontsel or fc-list?

Albert

P.S: I''m using fontconfig version 2.2.96 and xfontsel is from Xorg
6.7.0 i
know they are a bit old so if someone can check that both give the same 
result with newer versions i''ll be happy
