Fumihito / Shushi,

I wrote a patch that adds 'binding="strong"' to two of the fonts-takao
fontconfig recipes. A fonts-takao build with the patch is available in
my PPA at https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/misc

With the current archive versions of the fonts-takao-gothic and fonts-
takao-pgothic binary packages I get this:

$ LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
$ fc-match 'sans-serif'
DroidSansJapanese.ttf: "Droid Sans" "Regular"
$ fc-match 'serif'
fonts-japanese-mincho.ttf: "Takao P明朝" "Regular"
$ fc-match 'monospace'
DroidSansJapanese.ttf: "Droid Sans" "Regular"

After having installed the versions of those packages from my PPA, I get
this:

$ LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
$ fc-match 'sans-serif'
fonts-japanese-gothic.ttf: "Takao Pゴシック" "Regular"
$ fc-match 'serif'
fonts-japanese-mincho.ttf: "Takao P明朝" "Regular"
$ fc-match 'monospace'
TakaoGothic.ttf: "Takaoゴシック" "Regular"

Can you please install fonts-takao-gothic and fonts-takao-pgothic from
my PPA, carry out a 'real' test, and let us know the result?

Title:
  Default Chinese font changed to fonts-arphic-ukai after completing
  language support installation for zh-* locales

Status in Ubuntu Kylin:
  Fix Released
Status in “fonts-android” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “fonts-takao” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “language-selector” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  After completing language support installation, fonts-arphic-ukai and
  fonts-arphic-uming are pulled into user's system and then fontconfig
  chooses Ukai over Droid Sans Fallback for the default sans-serif font.
  This is not the desired behavior as Ukai doesn't fit well into the
  category of screen fonts comparing to Droid Sans.
