After the new default font for Arabic had made it to focal, we got some additional feedback at <https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/14573>. After further discussion, trial and error, and multiple changes in groovy it has landed in a consensus to make these adjustments: * Rename the .conf file from 69- to 56- * Drop binding="strong" * Drop the specification for monospace, and with that fall back to DejaVu for Arabic monospace The significance of the changes, which motivates the proposed SRU, is made up of: 1. Use DejaVu Sans Mono as default Arabic font for monospace instead of the previous non-mono font 2. No longer conflicts with Kubuntu's custom font configuration [Test case] * Install the language-selector-{gnome,common} packages from focal-proposed. * Open the Language Support tool and install Arabic. * Open a terminal window, run the below commands and confirm that you get the same output: $ LC_CTYPE=ar_EG.UTF-8 fc-match NotoSansArabicUI-Regular.ttf: "Noto Sans Arabic UI" "Regular" $ LC_CTYPE=ar_EG.UTF-8 fc-match monospace DejaVuSansMono.ttf: "DejaVu Sans Mono" "Book" [Regression risk] For some users this will change the default monospace font for rendering Arabic. That's the point. :) The change will only affect users with an Arabic locale. The risk that other users would be affected by the change is low.
