GNOME Software in Ubuntu 17.10 Alpha now shows the Cantarell, Lato and Oxygen fonts and 11 Lohit fonts for Indic languages. In order for more fonts to show up, similar appstream metainfo files will need to be added to the other font packages in Debian or Ubuntu.

In terms of usability, it is a good choice and the chances to mess up a system are diminished. As a result, it is not possible to install fonts. Fonts should also be regarded as packages that can be searched for and installed through GNOME Software. Reproduce: 1. Start GNOME Software 2. Search for "font" Expected result: several packages about fonts should be shown What happened: no packages are found To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-software/+bug/1655641/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
