[Bug 1956117] Re: The fonts-dejavu fonts no longer serve a purpose on a default installation

 

The reason I posted this here is because fonts-dejavu-core is a required
dependency of most ubuntu based desktop metapackages. This fits in line
with an ubuntu specific change as noted above. Debian did not create
ubuntu-desktop and as such I cannot report this upstream within that
context.

** Also affects: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu)

  Between the new language specific fonts, droid, noto, freefont, xfont,
