Public bug reported: The Linux Libertine fonts include the Indian Rupee sign (₹) at U+20A8. However, this code point is meant for the old rupee symbol (₨, like Rs). This symbol is used for the currency of Pakistan and sometimes those of other countries. In this context, the Indian symbol ₹ is incorrect and shouldn't be used. The correct codepoint for the symbol of the *Indian* rupee is U+20B9.
Other fonts have these symbols in the right places. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupee#Symbol and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_rupee_sign (which make no sense when the font is set to Linux Libertine) ** Affects: fonts-linuxlibertine (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to fonts-linuxlibertine in Ubuntu.
