Not exactly Gimp, but try this:

  si...@mezzanine:~$ fc-list "DejaVu Sans" : file
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf: 
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans-BoldOblique.ttf: 
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed-BoldOblique.ttf: 
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed.ttf: 
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans-Oblique.ttf: 
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans-ExtraLight.ttf: 
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed-Bold.ttf: 
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf: 
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansCondensed-Oblique.ttf: 

Hope this helps,
