Public bug reported: This has been going on for quite a while and still cannot understand why it has not been corrected. Metadata in Ubuntu Medium, Ubuntu Light and Ubuntu Thin does not follow standard convention.
Abbreviated output of fc-list | grep Ubuntu (showing the problematic fonts) Ubuntu-L.ttf: Ubuntu,Ubuntu Light:style=Light,Regular Ubuntu-LI.ttf:Ubuntu,Ubuntu Light:style=Light Italic,Italic Ubuntu-M.ttf: Ubuntu,Ubuntu Light:style=Medium,Bold Ubuntu-MI.ttf: Ubuntu,Ubuntu Light:style=Medium Italic,Bold Italic Ubuntu-Th.ttf: Ubuntu,Ubuntu Thin:style=Thin,Regular But fc-list output should be: Ubuntu-L.ttf: Ubuntu Light:style=Regular Ubuntu-LI.ttf: Ubuntu Light:style=Italic Ubuntu-M.ttf: Ubuntu Medium:style=Regular Ubuntu-MI.ttf: Ubuntu Medium:style=Italic Ubuntu-Th.ttf: Ubuntu Thin:style=Regular This affects Bionic, Cosmic, Dingo and Eoan and distributions based on them. Very large set. Applications affected, Libreoffice, Scribus, Inkscape, Pinta and others. Some cannot even see Medium or Light fonts. I have attached a set of corrected fonts for review. A fix is possible. ** Affects: fonts-ubuntu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "I've attached a set of corrected fonts" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1839022/+attachment/5281033/+files/ubuntu-font-corrections.tar.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1839022 Title: Metadata is Incorrect in Ubuntu Font Set To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fonts-ubuntu/+bug/1839022/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
