Kind of weird that font.ubuntu.com doesn't just offer .ttf files or other easy downloads.

  Apparently they're still polishing up the font, so the Ubuntu guys offer it as a package for easy upgrading. That's my guess at their reasoning, anyway.

    That's correct. They even considered delaying a release like this because it's not 100% finished and they didn't want too many versions of the font in the wild.

  Excerpt from the wiki: "Please do not try to download just the .deb or .tar.gz on its own; the test fonts change weekly (normally on a Monday) and having old copies of broken/superceded versions is producing incorrect bug reports. Even worse documents are ending up with the out-of-date fonts embedded in them."
