The Droid typeface family was designed in the fall of 2006 by Ascender's Steve Matteson, as a commission from Google to create a set of system fonts for its Android platform. The goal was to provide optimal quality and comfort on a mobile handset when rendered in application menus, web browsers, and for other screen text. This package installs /etc/fonts/conf.avail/35-droid.conf which sets the "sans" and "serif" and "monospace" aliases to Droid fonts. If you want to use Droid as your system fonts, symlink it into /etc/fonts/conf.d/
