Title:
[nc] Mono: Style: Cyrillic Ghe Г has incorrect bottom serif and looks
strange
Status in Ubuntu Font Family:
Fix Committed
Status in ubuntu-font-family-sources package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
The serif on the uppercase Г in Cyrillic in the monospace font seems
very weird to a native Cyrillic reader such as me (for Serbian
language).
Ideally the design should be changed to the same as in the Ubuntu
proportional fonts, just a plain two-stroke character, suitably
proportioned to fill out the monospace cell when used in runs of
monospace Cyrillic.
Proposed solution:
1. Monospace Г to have bottom serif removed
2. Redrawn as two strokes, correctly proportioned for monospace Cyrillic usage
