Good morning!

This report by Github user SverreStausland has been lingering on
the Luaotfload tracker for a while: There appears to be a
difference between how certain faces of the Libertine family
handle the placement of diacritics.

With Version 5.1.2 of the family [0], the "RZI" version
(fullname: “Linux Libertine O Semibold Italic”) shows a different
behavior than its “RZ” companion (“Linux Libertine O Semibold”).
Short demonstration in Context:

     \definefontfeature [ourfeats] [default] [mode=node]

     \starttext
       \start \definedfont [file:LinLibertine_RI.otf*ourfeats]  V\char"0306 
\stop
       \start \definedfont [file:LinLibertine_RZI.otf*ourfeats] V\char"0306 
\stop
     \stoptext

Note the misaligned combining breve above the latter. An
equivalent test for Plain [1] shows that the correct position
information is there somewhere in the font, since the Xetex
engine typesets it correctly.

it's a bug in the font:

uni0306 in the second one has class "base" while in the first one it has class "mark" and context checks on that

\enabletrackers[otf.bugs]

Best regards,
Philipp
