Yes, Liberation Sans was last built on Ubuntu 3+ years ago before the 20.04 release, so we know that it's the very same font in the various releases.
May I ask: Did you draw conclusions from the preview field in the fonts selection window only, or did you continue and saw the different alternatives in a real-world context, so to speak? When I tested on Ubuntu I actually made the fonts changes in Tweaks. Then I opened GNOME's Settings menu (Settings is one of the tools which query the related dconf values), took a screenshot of a specific string there, and used Gimp to scale it up to 600%. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Documentation Packages, which is subscribed to fonts-ubuntu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2017573 Title: Font hinting broken on 23.04 Status in fonts-ubuntu package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Just upgraded my laptops to Kubuntu 23.04 Lunar Lobster and hinting for all non-commercial fonts seems broken. I used to have decent if not perfect hinting on Ubuntu and Ubuntu Mono font, but now the only fonts that still hint correctly are Microsoft's Verdana and Tahoma etc. Not sure whether the devide is exactly along this line, but it stands out. Tried regenerating font cache (fc-cache -rv) but that didn't help.
