The test case suggests a change to 'Ubuntu Mono', but the 'Ubuntu_0.831.zip' I have here doesn't have any Ubuntu Mono (nor source, nor changelog, nor scripting, nor test cases, nor any contextual information). I can see:
2016-01-04 11:31 Zip file (repacked today?) 2015-12-04 10:55 .ttfs 2015-12-04 10:53:12..10:53:39, internal timestamps (three-second intervals) The two positive takeaways are that the version debug glyph shows 0.831, and from the close-interval timestamps we can deduce that the change(s) were made in an automated fashion. The question remains *what those changes are*. We can see eg: $ otfinfo -s {,/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ubuntu-font- family/}Ubuntu-R.ttf That the 0.84 files already out in the real world have flags indicating 'Hebrew' and 'Default', which these don't. Since these support less than than the higher-numbered version out there, it remains: * What are these files for. What is their purpose, what is supposed to be tested. * Are they even targetted for distribution. If so what are we supposed to do with them when they have a lower version number and less functionality. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Documentation Packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-font-family- sources in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1512111 Title: "Ubuntu Light" font has heavier weight than "Ubuntu" Status in One Hundred Papercuts: In Progress Status in Ubuntu Font Family: In Progress Status in ubuntu-font-family-sources package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in ubuntu-font-family-sources source package in Wily: New Bug description: After upgrading from Vivid to Wily, pages using the "Ubuntu light" font actually renders with a weight heavier than the regular one in web pages. This happens with Chrome/Chromium and also the Ubuntu browser. After manually reinstalling the 0.80-0ubuntu6 version from Vivid (in place of 0.83-0ubuntu1), the issue is fixed. See the attached screenshot showing the result seen browing https://www.google.com/fonts#UsePlace:use/Collection:Ubuntu ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: ttf-ubuntu-font-family 0.83-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-17.21-generic 4.2.3 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-17-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sun Nov 1 17:55:19 2015 Dependencies: InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-10-14 (382 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" - Alpha amd64 (20140923) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: ubuntu-font-family-sources UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to wily on 2015-10-31 (0 days ago) IMPACT: Ubuntu Light font renders incorrectly for all 15.10 users which impacts the usability and visual design. The new version of font package (0.831) corrects the relationship between Light and Medium weight to follow the commonly used naming standards: Ubuntu Light Light Light Italic Ubuntu Regular Italic Bold Bold Italic Ubuntu Medium Medium Medium Italic Ubuntu Condensed Regular Ubuntu Mono Regular Italic Bold Bold Italic TEST CASE: in 15.10, go to https://www.google.com/fonts#UsePlace:use/Collection:Ubuntu If the Light weight renders heavier than Normal weight, the bug is in place REGRESSION POTENTIAL 0.831 was tested by manually running in 15.10 and no regression was noticed, while the bug was fixed. The potential for regression is small.
