Thanks for your report! Hmm.. It would be a bit late for this kind of change in Xenial, wouldn't it? I added a Debian bug from March 2016 with a similar request (transitional package), but that bug hasn't been fixed.
Which packages and scripts *depending* on fonts-droid do you have in mind? (Can't help to think that they should have been changed by now...) ** Changed in: fonts-android (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #816911 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=816911 ** Also affects: fonts-android (Debian) via https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=816911 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1727291 Title: fonts-droid-fallback is missing "Provides: fonts-droid" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fonts-android/+bug/1727291/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
