This happens with Chrome/Chromium and also the Ubuntu browser. After manually reinstalling the 0.80-0ubuntu6 version from Vivid (in place of 0.83-0ubuntu1), the issue is fixed. See the attached screenshot showing the result seen browing https://www.google.com/fonts#UsePlace:use/Collection:Ubuntu ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: ttf-ubuntu-font-family 0.83-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-17.21-generic 4.2.3 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-17-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sun Nov 1 17:55:19 2015 Dependencies: InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-10-14 (382 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn" - Alpha amd64 (20140923) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: ubuntu-font-family-sources UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to wily on 2015-10-31 (0 days ago) IMPACT: Ubuntu Light font renders incorrectly for all 15.10 users which impacts the usability and visual design. The new version of font package (0.831) corrects the relationship between Light and Medium weight to follow the commonly used naming standards: Ubuntu Light Light Light Italic Ubuntu Regular Italic Bold Bold Italic Ubuntu Medium Medium Medium Italic Ubuntu Condensed Regular Ubuntu Mono Regular Italic Bold Bold Italic TEST CASE: in 15.10, go to https://www.google.com/fonts#UsePlace:use/Collection:Ubuntu If the Light weight renders heavier than Normal weight, the bug is in place REGRESSION POTENTIAL 0.831 was tested by manually running in 15.10 and no regression was noticed, while the bug was fixed. The potential for regression is small.
