Yes please! Liberation fonts 2.0 have considerably better unicode coverage. Example why I care: currently the default Ubuntu install has precisely 1(!) monospace font covering Hebrew (FreeMono) and 1 more comes if I install Hebrew language support (Miriam Mono CLM). Ubuntu font family Hebrew is still far from ready: So Liberation Mono 2.0's added Hebrew coverage (which to my eyes is prettier than FreeMono or Miriam) is a significant improvement. If this bug can't move forward for some reason, consider instead including fonts-croscore in default install — more or less the same fonts as Liberation 2.0, under different names (e.g. Cousine has monospace Hebrew coverage).

Please consider updating the package. The only regression is that Liberation Sans Narrow can't be included for license reasons, so that would have to be extracted from 1.07.
