Hey guys, I have just installed Raring (13.04) after using Precise
(12.04) for the last year and ran into the same problem as Ding Zhou and
Ryou Ezoe above when I couldn't find fontconfig-voodoo. I frequently
need to work with Simplified Chinese and, to a lesser extent, Japanese,
so I always run "sudo fontconfig-voodoo -s -f zh_CN" on new systems, but
despite having played around with Language Selector, I have so far been
unable to get fonts to look properly (see attached screenshot). Other
solutions posted here didn't seem to work either.

What is currently the recommended way of going about this?

Title:
  ja/zh fontconfig configuration only applied when locale is set
  'natively'

Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When I try to use "fontconfig-voodoo" in Ubuntu 12.10 from terminal,
  it told me:

      The program 'fontconfig-voodoo' is currently not installed. You can 
install it by typing:
      sudo apt-get install language-selector-common

  Actually, I have language-selector-common package installed in my
  Ubuntu.

  Where is fontconfig-voodoo? Without it, I can't config the correct
  Chinese fonts under English locale.

  Thanks.
