Yes, probably. But since none of the common font choosers allow to select a line spacing variant specifically, I see no reason to include each font (variant) five times because of this. > I wonder if it would be better to build them on-demand, using debconf > to select what variant(s) is/are wanted...

There is no way we confront users with a debconf question about which variant to compile upon package installation. This is not Gentoo. ;) - Fabian
