It seems like that this is affecting Trusty as well.  I was trying to
add some IME for Traditional Chinese and this was the direction I took:

- Leave desktop manager untouched (Unity)
- sudo gnome-language-selector
- Click "Install/Remove Languages"
- Check "Chinese (traditional)"
- Restart

After restarting the computer, it seems like the default font used for
Traditional Chinese Unicode characters is the "AR PL UKai" family
(especially for both sans-serif and sans).  This font looks very
unreadable, especially on web pages.  Are the fixes going to cherrypick
back to Trusty?

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

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.
