Public bug reported:
ttf-wqy-zenhei is a new excellent Hei Ti Chinese font included in Hardy.
I find it's mixing up or conflicting with xfonts-wqy (Wenquanyi Bitmap
Song font), which makes Chinese text inconsistent and ugly.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Boot Hardy beta desktop CD in English mode. Open firefox and browse
Chinese websites, you'll notice that the same Chinese font is used in
web pages, address bar, bookmarks, etc.
2. After installing Hardy beta onto the harddisk, you'll find that
firefox and other applications no longer use the same Chinese font as
usual. For example, the firefox address bar and some Chinese web pages
use wqy-zenhei, while other Chinese web pages use xfons-wqy. This
inconsistency is very annoying for Chinese users. Small truetype wqy-
zenhei font is actually jagged and hard to read.
One workaround I found is to remove the symbolic link
/etc/fonts/conf.d/63-wqy-zenhei.conf by typing:
$ sudo mv /etc/fonts/conf.d/63-wqy-zenhei.conf /root
and then restart Gnome. After do this, Chinese text display returns to
normal.
