Public bug reported:
This report affects ubuntu-desktop, language-support-fonts-ko and
language-selector-common.
Since Sep. 2007, ttf-unfonts-core has been a suggested package of
ubuntu-desktop. In a default install, Unfonts are set as the default Korean
font.
A superior quality Korean font (ttf-nanum) became available as from late 2010
under OFL. In May 2011, Google ChromeOS adopted ttf-nanum as the default Korean
font. After an extensive discussion in the Ubuntu Korean LoCo Mailing list
since last year, a consensus has now been reached that it is time to migrate to
ttf-nanum as the default Korean font in Ubuntu.
To achieve this, (1) ttf-unfonts-core (7.4Mb package size) must be replaced
with ttf-nanum (7.5Mb package size) as the suggested package of ubuntu-desktop
(2) language-support-fonts-ko should now include ttf-unfonts-core and
ttf-nanum-coding (3) appropriate changes need to be made in some of the
configurations files shipped with language-selector-common and
fontconfig-config (proposed patches are attached herewith).
