+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #588132 +++ We know the default simplified chinese font of Fedora 13 Livecd X86_64 Beta is wqy-zenhei,and it's very nice for most chinese users. But after I installed the package openoffice-langpack-zh_CN,The system's default font change to Uming fonts.It looks ugly. I noticed that when installing openoffice-langpack-zh_CN,yum installed cjkuni-Uming-font due to package dependencies。 -------- Maybe the fontconfig's profile in /etc/fonts/conf.d let the Uming fonts loaded before wqy-zenhei. When I removed cjkuni-Uming-font or deleted 64-ttf-arphic-uming.conf the default simplified chinese font change back to wqy-zenhei again. ----- I think it's a bug because I didn't found the same problem in Debian Squeeze.After I installed cjkuni-Uming-font the default font in Debian is still wqy-zenhei. Thanks. --- Additional comment from petersen on 2010-05-07 03:59:56 EDT --- I think this might well be a openoffice.org-langpack-zh_CN issue: probably the langpack should be updated to use/require WQY Zenhei now. --- Additional comment from petersen on 2010-05-07 04:00:51 EDT --- but uming should not override wqy-zenhei..
Could we remove the cjkuni-uming-fonts dependencies from openoffice.org-langpack-zh_CN, or use wqy-zenhei-fonts instead? As zh_CN users prefer wqy-zenhei-fonts.
For devel we've moved OOo langpacks to just requiring a font that can display the language, e.g. Requires: font(:lang=zh-cn) and Requires: font(:lang=zh-tw) which fixes this correctly for the long term. For F-13 we continue to require a specific font package. There's no problem in changing that font to be wqy-zenhei-fonts for the simplified Chinese OOo pack, should wqy-zenhei-fonts be preferred for traditional as well ?, or just simplified.

I guess that wqy-zenhei-fonts is only prefered by Simplified Chinese users. But not very sure about Traditional Chinese. Also CC Traditional Chinese users kaio and dychen.
Yeah I think let's just change zh_CN for now and we can consider/revisit zh_TW later if necessary.
Hmm, see bug 589974 for some additional bustage when the uming fonts are installed. To get this to work right, i.e. to get a suitable default document font in OOo when the language is zh-* and the uming fonts are not installed I need to backport a little bit more magic from F-14. Might as well just require a virtual font in this case altogether. Building as >= 3.2.0-12.21
