mpt: Comment #5 (which also set "Needs Information") requests clarification upon whether this bug should focus on remedying (a) or (b), or something else.
The original report is:
I find the Ubuntu font fairly attractive. [Opinion]
On the other hand, I find the Ubuntu Mono font unpleasant [Needs more detail about why it is unpleasant]
and likely to slow down my work. [Opinion]
I understand it is a matter of personal taste, [Fact]
but the reasons should be obvious from the attached image. [Guesswork required; appears to be Launchpad]
On popular operating systems, [Guesswork required; Mac OSX?]
it is easy to use one font but not another, even if they are related. [Factual statement, I think]
I suggest that this be possible on Ubuntu with the Ubuntu fonts too. [A recommendation; of which Comment #5 asks for clarification in narrowing down exactly the recommendation should be attached to; it is possible to set the keys on Ubuntu independently at a low level; and it would be possible…]
Probably the simplest way of implementing this would be to package them separately. [Recommendation, …to do this]
For this is solely about generating multiple .debs from the source tarball; how should those be split for maximum useful (proportional in one, monos in another). Or common weights and less common weights; should Ubuntu Condensed be separate or with the main proportionals; should Light/Medium be included with those or packaged separately aswell).
All of these are /technically/ possible, but guidance would still be welcomed.
IMHO, this would be "Needs Information", but I'm happy to leave the status as New if that is likely to be better understood.
