Thanks for the tip, Pellaeon Lin! To me it's useful indeed. $ LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 fc-match 'sans-serif' ukai.ttc: "AR PL UKai CN" "Book" $ LANG=zh_HK.UTF-8 fc-match 'sans-serif' uming.ttc: "AR PL UMing CN" "Light" $ LANG=zh_TW.UTF-8 fc-match 'sans-serif' DroidSansFallbackFull.ttf: "Droid Sans Fallback" "Regular"
Not good. I made a couple of changes to language-selector: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/170732046/language- selector_0.124_0.125~ppa.diff.gz and uploaded to my PPA at https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/fonts $ LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 fc-match 'sans-serif' DroidSansFallbackFull.ttf: "Droid Sans Fallback" "Regular" $ LANG=zh_HK.UTF-8 fc-match 'sans-serif' DroidSansFallbackFull.ttf: "Droid Sans Fallback" "Regular" $ LANG=zh_TW.UTF-8 fc-match 'sans-serif' DroidSansFallbackFull.ttf: "Droid Sans Fallback" "Regular" Looks promising, doesn't it? :) I'd like a few Chinese users to test the language-selector version in my PPA. Then there are a few questions: * Should this change make it to the archive, or are there drawbacks? * Should we add 'binding="strong"' to all the 69-language-selector-zh-*.conf files to be safe? * Should we add 'binding="strong"' to serif and monospace as well? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to language-selector in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1227034 Title: Default Chinese font changed to fonts-arphic-ukai after completing language support installation for zh-* locales Status in Ubuntu Kylin: Triaged Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After completing language support installation, fonts-arphic-ukai and fonts-arphic-uming are pulled into user's system and then fontconfig chooses Ukai over Droid Sans Fallback for the default sans-serif font. This is not the desired behavior as Ukai doesn't fit well into the category of screen fonts comparing to Droid Sans.
