Create a package googlefonts for fonts from https://fonts.google.com/. Install font "Roboto". When other fonts from https://fonts.google.com/ are needed, they can be added to this bee package. Select only Regular and (Regular) Italic style from the Robot family, because styles with other weights are shown as separate entries in the LibreOffice font-selection menu and are not really needed.

Why not add all styles, and be done with it? Missing fonts are often hard to spot. Debian packages the files below. |

Because the font selection menu of LibreOffice would then contain
which is no win for the user. What font to use, when someone says "use Roboto" ? Do I need to select "Roboto Bold" when I want a word in bold? The font menu is too long already. When we install all Google fonts in all styles we just make the menu unusable. So I'd rather install what is needed and was asked for only. |

Good point, but I believe, the users would use templates, and we should probably change the LibreOffice default font. Anyway, the current package is an improvement. |
