[Bug 1227034] Re: Default Chinese font changed to fonts-arphic-ukai after completing language support installation for zh-* locales

 

My default language is English, i.e. my windows, menus, etc. are
displayed in English. But when I display, for example, a text file
written in Chinese, or when I enter Chinese characters in a Google
search, or go to a Chinese web site, the Chinese words are displayed in
UKai. This is true regardless which applications I use (firefox, text
editor, terminal, thunderbird, etc.). In 13.10, this problem did not
exist.

I even modified the 69-language-selector-zh-cn.conf to completely remove
UKai entries but still no effect. (Yes, I've rebooted.) It's as though
those .conf files are not even used. Or maybe I need to rebuild
something (database, cache?)?

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

Status in Ubuntu Kylin:
  Triaged
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.
