Public bug reported: Upstream has moved the Droid Sans Fallback font from the fonts-droid package to a new fonts-droid-fallback package.
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-fonts/fonts-android.git/ It means that we'll need to change the package name in a bunch of seeds, and in pkg_depends. This will not be a problem as regards new installs, as far as I can tell, but I fear a problem when people upgrade from 14.04 or 15.10 to 16.04, since there is no dummy package with the old name which depends on the new one. @Aron: How should we deal with this issue? One way, if Droid Sans Fallback will keep being the default Chinese font in 16.04, is to ask upstream to create a transitional dummy package. ** Affects: fonts-android (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to fonts-android in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1527938 Title: Upstream fonts-droid -> fonts-droid-fallback Status in fonts-android package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Upstream has moved the Droid Sans Fallback font from the fonts-droid package to a new fonts-droid-fallback package. http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-fonts/fonts-android.git/ It means that we'll need to change the package name in a bunch of seeds, and in pkg_depends.
