Hi
time ago I made a request for include that font by default in openSUSE - https://features.opensuse.org/314433
There is package "fifth-leg-font". FifthLeg is used only as branding font, so it's not needed for ordinary user. And there are some problems: no cyrillic glyphs (work in progress), kerning issues.
We have discussed the replacement of FifthLeg with another Open Font, lately.
Pascal came up with a few suggestions:
... https://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Signika https://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Lato https://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Strait https://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Scada
All of those seem nice (i am in-fact using Lato font for desktop for some time now), but: a) as already mentioned, seems there are only Latin variants, b) none of them, except maybe Strait font, are decorative fonts, which should, IMHO, a font for this purpose be. I don't really have a strong opinion about which font should be used, but a change should not be made for the sake of change.
You can browse around here: https://www.google.com/webfonts
To download the TTF file, do this: curl 'http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Signika'
You will then get the URL of the font, e.g. for Signika: http://themes.googleusercontent.com/static/fonts/signika/v3/ShL_W4dvX9R2li-O gANwuA.ttf
Those fonts are all under the SIL Open Font License, kind of MIT/BSD for fonts http://scripts.sil.org/OFL ...
