Actually, the situation is even worse than that. The Linux Libertine font supposed to be bundled in LibreOffice is *not* the one available in the repositories. Indeed, LO is shipped with the Graphite version (dubbed Linux Libertine G), while in the repos you can find the Open Type version (Linux Libertine O). While the first one handles perfectly ligatures in LO, this is not the case of the second one (it should, but LO doesn't fully support Open Type). There are a few other things that differ. So, even, if one install the Linux Libertine package in Ubuntu, he won't be able to see a document written with Linux Libertine under MS Windows correctly.
