Good catch! That Debian bug was filed in 2017, and "the fix" of it was uploaded in Ubuntu here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine/8.0.1~repack-2 So: Some users like that the .ttf files in fonts-wine are treated as system fonts, and some users dislike it. If you dislike it, please submit a Debian bug and request that "the fix" of <https://bugs.debian.org/883973> gets reverted. Given the subjective nature of the issue, it would not make sense to change it back in Ubuntu only. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to fontconfig in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/412195 Title: ttf-tahoma-replacement makes some web-sites look ugly Status in fontconfig package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in wine1.2 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: wine1.2 This font package is good for wine 1.2; however, it also makes sites look ugly in Firefox and other browsers. I had to manually remove the fonts from /usr/share/fonts/ to rectfiy this, because removing the package through apt would have made me remove wine 1.2 and I didn't want that.
