Any effort to fix it before 15.04 ?

This is affecting all Indic Languages .


to be done :   ttf-indic-fonts and all subpackages need to be replaced with fonts-indic and subpackages . 

For Malayalam  : fonts-smc need to be used instead of ttf-malayalam-
fonts

Packages are already in debian upstream .

We are working on an Ubuntu PPA as well

(still in testing)

Title:
  ttf-indic-fonts packages are outdated

Status in ttf-indic-fonts package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The Debian fonts team recently restructured the indic fonts. ttf-indic-fonts changed to fonts-indic. This is meta package and all packages ttf-[language]-fonts renamed to fonts-[script/foundry]. In addition to this all fonts were updated to latest versions from upstreams. 
  I request ubuntu maintainers to update the fonts to latest versions and consider following the debian package naming changes for fonts.

  Refer: http://packages.debian.org/sid/fonts-indic
