mpt: Comment #5 (which also set "Needs Information") requests clarification upon whether this bug should focus on remedying (a) or (b), or something else.
The original report is: I find the Ubuntu font fairly attractive. [Opinion] On the other hand, I find the Ubuntu Mono font unpleasant [Needs more detail about why it is unpleasant] and likely to slow down my work. [Opinion] I understand it is a matter of personal taste, [Fact] but the reasons should be obvious from the attached image. [Guesswork required; appears to be Launchpad] On popular operating systems, [Guesswork required; Mac OSX?] it is easy to use one font but not another, even if they are related. [Factual statement, I think] I suggest that this be possible on Ubuntu with the Ubuntu fonts too. [A recommendation; of which Comment #5 asks for clarification in narrowing down exactly the recommendation should be attached to; it is possible to set the keys on Ubuntu independently at a low level; and it would be possible…] Probably the simplest way of implementing this would be to package them separately. [Recommendation, …to do this] For this is solely about generating multiple .debs from the source tarball; how should those be split for maximum useful (proportional in one, monos in another). Or common weights and less common weights; should Ubuntu Condensed be separate or with the main proportionals; should Light/Medium be included with those or packaged separately aswell). All of these are /technically/ possible, but guidance would still be welcomed. IMHO, this would be "Needs Information", but I'm happy to leave the status as New if that is likely to be better understood. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/863358 Title: Can't easily use Ubuntu without using Ubuntu Mono To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-font-family/+bug/863358/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
