Public bug reported:

Needlessly lost an hour of my time figuring out why I couldn't install
the Abril Fatface font from
http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/list/classification/serif

Whatever howto I followed, the font wouldn't show up in xlsfonts...

... until, on a hunch, I restarted my inkscape, and lo and behold: there
it was.

But why doesn't xlsfonts show it?

1)
> lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS
Release:        14.04
2)
> apt-cache policy x11-utils
x11-utils:
  Installed: 7.7+1
  Candidate: 7.7+1
  Version table:
 *** 7.7+1 0
        500 http://be.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
3) What I expected to happen: xlsfonts should show *all* installed fonts
4) What happened instead: xlsfonts showed *some* fonts, but not all
