This is not fixed. Just the ttf-indic-fonts package removed without alternatives. All indic languages broken now - no fonts at all. Some scripts falls back to FreeSans and it is horribly broken old version.

[Bug 958345] Re: ttf-indic-fonts packages are outdated should be removed
I can confirm that 15.10 does indeed come with ttf-indic-fonts. The fonts provided on Ubuntu 15.10 by default provides a suboptimal user experience for someone dealing with Indic content. These are VERY old fonts, and it is gross injustice to not include newer versions. The fix suggested seems simple enough, and I have no idea why this is taking years to be completed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/958345 Title: ttf-indic-fonts packages are outdated should be removed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/958345/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 958345] Re: ttf-indic-fonts packages are outdated should be removed
It does. Steps to reproduce: 1. Get Ubuntu 15.10 Image and boot it. (I used virtualbox) 2. Once you get the desktop go to /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-indic-fonts-core - Remember this was not additionally or explicitly installed. It came by default with OS. 3. You will see the years old fonts installed there as shown in screenshot attached. Some of these fonts are even abandoned by developers. 4. The impact: After ubuntu installed, not installing any extra packages, without any extra customization, the indic language rendering the user get is crappy. Majority of users are going to use ubuntu as such without bothering or not knowing customization and package management. Since I am a developer of some of these fonts, I get this question every week from users- "Why am I seeing the crappy fonts in Ubuntu?"

As far as I can tell the Ubuntu installer does not explicitly install ttf-indic-fonts-core. The ubuntu-desktop package depends on the new fonts.

[Bug 958345] Re: ttf-indic-fonts packages are outdated should be removed
> Santhosh - you should uninstall ttf-indic-fonts-core and install the fonts-* packages instead. Yeah, that is what we are asking - please remove it from ubuntu installer so that the users get correct fonts. After installing Ubuntu, people get fonts from ttf-indic-fonts-core package. Those fonts are outdated - in fact many years old. Asking every user of Ubuntu to uninstall that package and install fonts-* package is not the solution I expect here. Either update ttf-indic-fonts-core package to latest version or use new package in ubuntu installer. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/958345 Title: ttf-indic-fonts packages are outdated should be removed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/958345/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
