Alright well my feedback is that this isn't going so well.
I installed the file referenced in the email, under Linux 64bt (Ubuntu)
GNOME (a few times - with and without the old vegur files on the system)
Results [GIMP and InkScape]
- only light font is available. Regular, Medium and Bold actually use
the Light font. Space character is so small that the break between words
is for all intent an purpose none-existent.
- the height metric changed a bit, the updated font is slightly taller
then it was from the Oct 2010 files
Results [LibreOffice (3.3.2)]
- Vegur again only displays light
- New twist, bold a word with special characters (some - the ones used
for Spanish) now they display as blank spaces. [see screenshot]

So you mentioned Olivier and I said - right the Brasilian cover that is
Vegur..so what's up with that? Maybe this works under MS Windows and
Commercial graphics applications and maybe that is what they used?

It looks like the accented "o" "versión" and the accented "a" "gráfico"
are not supported in bold with the font.
IMHO the adoption of the Vegur font was a great starter font for the new
LibreOffice project, but there should be a big push put in the design
team to find a resolution for this problem. We have arrived at the point
where we need a font that supports a full complement of language
characters. The different language groups are forming their marketing
teams and are soon going to start needing font support for their
marketing materials.
Cheers
