Wonderful news! 30-cjk-aliases.conf (which is now included in language-selector-common) should be updated (replaced) as per "Modified configuration files" provided here as "Bug attachments".
65-nonlatin.conf (which is now included in fontconfig-conf) should also be updated as proposed here. Even if these changes are not made, as long as users have not installed ttf-unfonts, they will have fonts-nanum as their default Korean font, which is perhaps ok. But if these changes are not made, when users install ttf-unfonts as 'additional' fonts, they will have they 'preferred font' changed into ttf-unfonts, which will be an unpleasant, unintended surprise for quite a few users. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenJDK, which is subscribed to openjdk-6 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/792471 Title: Change default Korean font to ttf-nanum Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “ubuntu-meta” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: 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).
