Attached you'll see a screenshot of Ubuntu's Chromium vs Ubuntu's Firefox. The bolded letters in the Tamil language font are not displayed correctly. I downloaded Google's .deb of Chrome to compare and it had the same problem. (You'll see from the linked bug that Brion diagnosed this problem first.) Since Fedora 16 came out recently, I decided to give it a try. The Google-provided RPMs for Chrome were able to display the bolded fonts properly there. Ubuntu should probably do whatever Fedora is doing to bold those fonts.
