No, they should not. The Deja Vu developers do not have access to
reasonable font design tools, so the glyphs they're creating are not of
high quality, furthermore, they've added glyphs of questionable quality
from other free fonts that are far outside the design space for the Vera
family.

Deja Vu is becoming a sad reflection of the Vera promise. If you don't
want to use the vera font, don't install it.
