Ubuntu Font Family 0.80 (which includes a monospace variant) is now available in the official Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot repositories.
To make it easier to install and stay up to date with the latest versions, I've also uploaded the new font version to the WebUpd8 Ubuntu Font Family PPA, for Ubuntu 11.04, 10.10 and 10.04 - add the PPA and install it using the following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/ubuntu-font-family
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ttf-ubuntu-font-familyIf you're not using Ubuntu or don't want to use our PPA, you can download the Ubuntu font via font.ubuntu.com
