如何在Ubuntu 18.04上安装Gnome 3.28中可用的新Cantarell字体？

Gnome 3.28发行说明说Cantarell字体已进行了重大更新，但Ubuntu 18.04中尚未预装此字体，并且软件中心中可用的版本多年未更新。

那么有没有办法安装新的呢？

您可以从Cantarell github页面获取最新信息，并从源代码构建它：https : //github.com/madig/cantarell-fonts/releases

最新版本为2018年3月15日起的0.101。

构建和安装非常简单：

sudo apt install python3-pip meson ninja-build
pip3 install --user fontmake
pip3 install --user git+https://github.com/adobe-type-tools/psautohint.git@v1.1.0#egg=psautohint
meson build
cd build
sudo ninja install

结果：
