"<sabdfl> fonts-ubuntu-font-family-console … needs to be a dep of 'ubuntu-standard', and the default mono font for 11.10 please" Ubuntu 11.10 Hard Freeze is in 32 hours time. This would require: 1. Upstream release of Ubuntu Font Family 0.80. A release candidate has been out for a couple of days with no reports of show stoppers (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-font-family/+milestone/0.80) 2. Distro upload of Ubutu Font Family 0.80 minus Medium for oneiric 3. Accepting 'fonts-ubuntu-font-family-console' binary (built from the same source) into universe 4. Promoting 'fonts-ubuntu-font-family-console' to main 5. MIR for 'otf2bdf' 6. MIR for 'bdf2psf' 7. Adjusting of seeds to add 'fonts-ubuntu-font-family-console' to 'ubuntu-standard' 8. Increasing CD/Image size by 18 kB in all cases. (By not building Italic/Bold Italic this would decrease to ~10 kB) This would get 'consolefonts' installed, but would require users to manually install it. This would not require changes to screenshots or documentation adjusts as nothing in the default has changed. To subsequently set as default would require: 9. '/var/lib/dpkg/info/console-setup.config' adjustments; the desired font capacity is limited; this sets the particular subset for Latin/Greek/Cyrillic/Arabic etc. We cannot replace all of these. 10. We don't have sufficient glyph coverage to replace all of these. 11. The snapshot of the hinted Ubuntu Mono fonts from Vincent Connare/Dalton Maag on 2011-09-22 are a vast improvement, but are still a work in progress. 12. Regenerating Ubuntu server screenshots 13. Adjusting documentation slightly, although likely minor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fonts-ubuntu/+bug/861334/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
