Aside from the chromium upstream bug
(https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=627143), I'm not
seeing any issue with the rendering of Ubuntu Light:
- libreoffice renders text correctly when using the Ubuntu font and setting
the character style to light
- firefox and epiphany
Any further progress on this? Why have a bug reporter if bugs are going
to sit out here forever unresolved. This is a definite issue with the
metadata in the fonts. Easily fixable.

Downloaded ubuntu-font-family-0.83 from design.ubuntu.com/font.
This bug also affects me on Debian 9.
If I remove Ubuntu Medium, Ubuntu Light renders properly in LibreOffice.
Also, Microsoft Windows displays Ubuntu Medium's font name as "Ubuntu
Light."

The valid CSS would be:
font-weight: lighter;
In the case of explicitly wanting "Ubuntu Light", once everything is
fixed, the CSS access will hopefully be just:
