If the font size changes (which IMO is a good thing), we will probably need to adjust the "font size correction" currently done in D-I by the gtk-set-font script in the rootskel-gtk package. Or does the "There is no change to the udeb" mean that the size for the font included in the udeb was not changed? Note that we _do_ currently increase the font size by 2 points in the installer: the default font size in the installer is 9, but for Indic languages we use 11. Having a better "standard size 9" for the font in the udeb would IMO be preferable in the long run. I also see that we currently don't actually set a font for Indic languages (like we do for some others), but that's probably OK. Cheers, FJP
