[Pkg-fonts-devel] Bug#714436: fonts-droid: No Hangul characters

[Martin Tang]

Package: fonts-droid
Version: 1:4.2.r1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Korean characters do not display properly (they show up as boxes) after the package is installed. After further investigation (downloading the .ttf files from the Android git repository), I found that:

1. With only DroidSansFallbackFull.ttf (as is the case in fonts-droid), Korean characters do not display properly.

2. With DroidSansFallback.ttf present, Korean characters display properly.
