** Description changed:

- It seems some font packages has been removed in Karmic vs Jaunty and so 
Persian support in Karmic became really poor vs Jaunty. In Jaunty internet 
browsers like FF use Nazli az serif for persian sites (which is right facing) 
but in Karmic browsers use DejaVu Serif wich is really ugly and completely 
unreadable...
- I've installed "language-support-fonts-fa" meta package but nothing changed 
yet...
+ FreeSerif is the default Serif font in Firefox & epiphany on Karmic, this 
font has unreadable glyphs for Persian and maybe other nonlatin languages...
+ Jaunty didn't have this bug.
+ 
+ pmap grep ttf for firefox in Jaunty CD is:
+ 
+ b2285000 316 - - - r---- DejaVuSansMono.ttf
+ b2419000 300 - - - r---- DejaVuSerif-Bold.ttf
+ b24be000 560 - - - r---- DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf
+ b4051000 324 - - - r---- DejaVuSerif.ttf
+ b48eb000 608 - - - r---- DejaVuSans.ttf
+ 
+ and pmap grep ttf for firefox in Karmic CD is:
+ 
+ aebc7000 1252 - - - r---- FreeSerif.ttf
+ b5628000 300 - - - r---- DejaVuSerif-Bold.ttf
+ b5673000 560 - - - r---- DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf
+ b60ad000 324 - - - r---- DejaVuSerif.ttf
