One of the aims while creating the font was its internal consistency.

...and an alias called "univga" is added, so you can say e.g.:
xterm -fn univga
+In most applications' font pickers, the font is just "VGA".

Also 3 varieties of the font are installed for use with
the Linux console: AsianCyr-vga-8x16, WinCyr-vga-8x16, and
UniCyrX-vga-8x16. They can be used in /etc/rc.d/rc.font, but won't
show up in the setconsolefont menu.

+By default, the BDF (old style X bitmap), PSF (Linux console), and
+OTB (new style Pango/Harfbuzz bitmap) fonts are installed. If you for
+some reason need it, you can also install the PCF (portable compiled
+X font) version, with PCF=yes in the environment. You can also set
+BDF=no, PSF=no, and/or OTB=no, if you want to omit one or more of
+these font types. Setting all 4 variables to "no" is an error, though.
