Hi I used Bitstream Vera for years now and I don't think that DejaVu is an adequate replacement. What I liked about Bistream Vera most is that it made a clear distinction of the letters lower case 'l' and upper case 'i' ('I') which look exactly the same in Dejavu. Also, the distinction between a ze

I'd also like to express my frustration with this decision. I'm quite happy using DejaVu now, but I can't help but feel a little upset that I had to go to a good deal of trouble figuring out why my favorite programming font went away because someone else felt that its availability Vera did little

Why was this package removed from the repositories without even a transitional package put in its place? Many programs still depend upon ttf-bitstream-vera explicitly. This "fix" has broken many other packages. -- RFE: Replace Bitstream Vera with DejaVu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/12016 You

I just wanted to request that the original bitstream vera fonts be made available, or that (if this is possible), a symlink is made that points bitstream to the deja vu fonts. Some programs may specifically look for bitstream fonts and not render correctly if they are not found. I ran into this o

I just upgraded to karmic beta, and I'm having trouble figuring out how to use dejavu instead of vera for my terminal font. I had XTerm*font: -bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-bold-r-normal-*-12-*-*-*-c-*-iso10646-1 (I know that encoding probably wasn't ideal, but it was working) but it's not

Why was this marked Fix Released? ubuntu-desktop still depends on ttf- bitstream-vera, thereby making it the default and impossible to remove. Perhaps the best solution is to follow Pascal's suggestion and add Provides and Conflicts ttf-bitstream-vera to the ttf-dejavu package so that we could at

I did my own packages for dejavu which provides ttf-bitstream-vera, so uninstalling it won't pull OpenOffice.org with it. It would be nice for this to become the default. Bitstream Vera only clutters up the font list now. -- RFE: Replace Bitstream Vera with DejaVu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bug

Can't Bitstream Vera be removed from the default install, to be replaced by DejaVu (LGC)? The Fedora Project seems to already have done so: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fonts/DejaVu -- RFE: Replace Bitstream Vera with DejaVu https://launchpad.net/bugs/12016 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-
