Dear Ubuntu maintainers,
I'm one of the main developer of the Mozilla MathML Project. I've just
looked at the suggested packages for Firefox
http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/firefox
and noticed the "latex-xft-fonts" package. This package is said to be
"useful for Mozilla Firefox with MathML documents". This is no longer
true. The fonts currently usable by the MathML rendering engine are:
- STIX fonts (since at least Firefox 4.0)
- Asana Math font (since Firefox 7.0)
- MathJax fonts (since Firefox 13.0)
For more details, see

http://www.maths-informatique-jeux.com/blog/frederic/?post/2012/06/23/Mozilla-MathML-Project%3A-installation-of-mathematical-fonts
I would be really grateful if you could update the suggested font
packages for MathML.
Best regards,
