The light and condensed fonts are DejaVuSans, which happened to be
installed on the system on which that test was created. I think the test
should only rely on the fonts delivered with matplotlib.

I created a github issue:

matplotlib.tests.test_text.test_font_styles fails when DejaVuSans not installed · Issue #488 · matplotlib/matplotlib · GitHub

I'm not quite sure if this should be considered release critical: it
does cause a test to break on some systems, but this reflects a problem
in the test, not in the functionality being tested.

I marked it release_critical nonetheless, since I think we can expect
downstream packagers and users to want the tests to pass.

I just issued a pull request with a possible fix:

Fix test_font_styles text so it doesn't use any fonts outside of what is
