Thanks for your help Peter,

The font is visible with fc-list, I've installed it this way :

$> mkdir -p /usr/share/fonts/truetype/custom
$> wget "http://cloud.github.com/downloads/andreberg/Meslo-Font/Meslo%20LG%20DZ%20v1.0.zip";
$> unzip Meslo\ LG\ DZ\ v1.0
$> mv Meslo\ LG\ DZ\ v1.0/*.ttf /usr/share/fonts/truetype/custom
$> fc-cache -f -v

I'll try the function and tell you.

Is there a directive to include at build time, or a new parameter in the 
configuration file, or anything else?
Is your font visible fc-list/fc-match, i.e., is it part of the libfontconfig 
based fonts service? Or is the X server providing the font? Is this function 
(by Miles Bader) showing your font? Is it showing a complete list of fonts?
