[Bug 1173571] Re: please change wenquanyi micro hei back with 69-language-selector-zh-tw.conf

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

Thanks for the tests and analyses!

I have prepared a language-selector branch and a ttf-wqy-microhei branch
with the changes you propose. Please check them out carefully to help
prevent misunderstandings.

There is a but, though. ttf-wqy-microhei is already in the main pocket
of the Ubuntu archive, while fonts-droid is currently in universe.
Before committing the proposed language-selector changes, fonts-droid
needs to get included in main through a special process:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionProcess

This is doable, of course, but before we start a MIR application, I'd
like to ask if basically the same appearance can be achieved by using
wqy-microhei instead, i.e. as you initially suggested. If it can, the
wqy-microhei path seems to be preferable, after all.

Title:
  please change wenquanyi micro hei back with 69-language-selector-zh-
  tw.conf

Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “ttf-wqy-microhei” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  In quantal and previous version of ubuntu, we use WenQuanYi Micro Hei
  as default Chinese (Traditional) fonts for Sans, Monospace. However,
  the default font is set to WenQuanYi Zen Hei in 0.110 version provided
  by Raring.

  It is a regression that most of Chinese (Traditional) users don't
  appreciate this change. We would like to use WenQuanYi Micro Hei as
  before.

  I changed the conf provided by raring to fit we Chinese (Traditional)
  users more to have WenQuanYi Micro Hei back. Please accept the patch.
