I stand corrected: Intrepid does indeed appear to install the recommended fonts package as well upon installation of LyX. Thanks for pointing that out, Dara.
In light of that and the Debian Policy that Dara has listed above, I'm happy with things the way they are for 8.10. It might be nice to have latex-xft-fonts be a requirement for lyx under 8.04 (I don't see a problem with breaking Debian policy in that case, given that 8.04 didn't follow the then-current Debian policy to treat recommends as dependencies either), but that may be impractical or pointless to do at this point, given the upcoming release of 8.10 in a few weeks. So, pending anything that anyone wants to say for changing things on 8.04 (I'm guessing that's not feasible at the moment, but considering that it will still be supported for a while, might not be a bad idea), I'm fine with closing this bug (though it's technically phil's bug, not mine - I just picked it up recently). -- \cdot and \times appear the same in equations https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/245337 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
