I didn’t see this particular issue before, so I presume this is caused by the new font with different dimensions: the checkboxes in the update dialog are cut off and cannot be scrolled to become fully visible. ** Attachment added: "Bildschirmfoto vom 2023-03-22 21-24-08.png" https://bugs.launc

Well, if Canonical had agreed on fonts-ubuntu being non-free, it would have been sorted in the restricted pocket of the Ubuntu archive. But it's not. It's in main, i.e. the Canonical supported free software. I can agree that 100% clarity would have been better, but we are not there. The change mad

What I noticed right away is that the new version is thinner and less readable for me. (3840x2160) Changing Hinting has no effect. All in all the font size is good, especially the mono font now fits proportionally better in the terminal. -- You received this bug notification because you are a m

I have the impression the different weight is caused by different (wrong?) hinting in the -proposed package. See for example the image in this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Font_hinting The apparent weight of the hinted/non-hinted versions is quite different. -- You received this bug

I agree regarding the new `i`. I also see a similar issue with the middle of the number `8`. I just tried it back and forth a few times, and I honestly prefer darker weight of the older version as feeling more readable. But this is admittedly subjective and the new version looks a little less unus

Well, it seems to me that we have a discrepancy here: either (for Canonical/on Ubuntu) the UFL is non-free or it isn't. If it is, then the other two issues are correctly open, but the fix in here (no longer marking this font as non-free) is wrong. On the other hand, if the UFL isn't non-free, this

That's my interpretation of the discussions you linked to and other discussions on a related Debian bug. Maybe the word "disagrees" was not used anywhere. What's your reason for bringing it up? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Documentation Packages, which is subs

In https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fonts- ubuntu/+bug/1754804/comments/4 it is stated that "Canonical disagrees" that the license is non-free (even if I don't see a source for the claim). The comment might have some weight, as that package on Ubuntu is no longer marked as non-free. Clari

> fonts-ubuntu is shipped by default on Ubuntu systems. It has significant reverse dependencies and cannot be uninstalled easily. Debian considers fonts-ubuntu to be “non-free” while Canonical disagrees. I'm sorry, can you please link to where is written that "Canonical disagrees"? This is the fir
