I'm getting back about Chinese and Japanese rendering with a non-CJKV
locale. We need to reach a conclusion as regards the default
configuration.
Currently 64-language-selector-prefer.conf looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<alias>
<family>sans-serif</family>
<prefer>
<family>Noto Sans CJK JP Regular</family>
<family>Noto Sans CJK JP</family>
<family>Noto Sans CJK SC Regular</family>
<family>Noto Sans CJK SC</family>
<family>Noto Sans CJK TC Regular</family>
<family>Noto Sans CJK TC</family>
</prefer>
</alias>
<alias>
<family>monospace</family>
<prefer>
<family>Noto Sans Mono CJK JP</family>
<family>Noto Sans Mono CJK SC</family>
<family>Noto Sans Mono CJK TC</family>
</prefer>
</alias>
</fontconfig>
That configuration seems to be an improvement for Japanese (bug
#1540063). I'm assuming that the Japanese lines in the file have nothing
to do with 'the Takao in Firefox issue' which tomoe_musashi mentioned in
comment #81. (Please let me know if I'm wrong here. If I'm not, I take
it that we can keep the current version of 64-language-selector-
prefer.conf in Ubuntu 16.04.)
Possibly 'the Takao in Firefox issue' is a Firefox bug.
@tomoe_musashi: You mentioned that modifying 65-nonlatin.conf may fix
that issue. Can you please let us know about the change you made?
FYI I filed bug #1560548, but I don't think it needs to be fixed in
16.04.

Bug description:
just realize that fonts-noto-cjk is available in the repository, finally its
packaged.
i don't really know about korean community.
But for Chinese and Japanese community, i think that the answer is clear.
noto-cjk is definitely better what we had before, like fonts- wqy and
fonts-droid.
Android community had received these complains for years, finally they got
them fixed on lollipop.
Fedora also set it as default chinese font start from F21.
and of course, i still hope that ubuntu could drop those 69-language-selector
fontconfig files, just like what F13 did.
