Its because i was busy in other project and also conflict between Liberation 1 and 2. Basic idea behind Liberation 2 was to stop bug fixing on Liberation 1 and develop 2 for future. But still we were using Liberation 1. Now, we have new maintainer for Liberation Fonts and with clear direction for Liberation 2, he will do the required bug-fixes and enhancements into it. He is already working on adding BitCoin glyph to it. > > "Liberation 2" fonts are essentially rebranded Google Croscore fonts. No, Liberation 2 are not just re-branded. We have done bug-fixing and also added Serbian language support into it.

I have not see any way, to fix issues in Noto upstream [2] and rebuilt that .ttf. In Liberation 2, we have source file .sfd, one can fix, provide patch. Thanks Kevin for raising this point, i assure will get more development on Liberation 2 soon.
