I don't think it's close to as widely deployed. The DejaVu fonts
seem to be pretty standard in Linux installs as reliable many-glyph
fonts. Debian's popcon seems to back that up, 137088 recorded
installs of ttf-dejavu vs 9836 of fonts-linuxlibertine (though the
numbers are a bit confusing, I think because of package moves, as
there's one called fonts-dejavu which has 18722, but either way it's
quite a bit more).

That said, I certainly prefer Linux Libertine. I use it (loaded as a
webfont) for the skin Erudite.
