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.

This is caused by the installation of fonts-arphic-ukai and fonts-arphic-uming, while they take the precedence over default system font in fontconfig- config/ language- selector.
As we are moving from WQY MicroHei to Droid Sans Fallback, it'd be good to check if this is still relevant and we probably need to check the mentioned packages.
