Originally reported by Michael Biebl to the Debian Bug Tracking System, see
<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=616620>:

Hi,

since upgrading ttf-liberation from 1.05.2.20091019-4 to
1.06.0.20100721-1, the letter 'u' and 'U' has become much "thiner" in
comparison to other letters. See the attached screenshot I took from the
SPON website, especially the word "um".

I downgraded to the squeeze version again and the problem is gone, so
this is a regression of the new upstream release.

Cheers,
Michael

> Is only the sans variant affected or also the serif one?

Hard to say, as the serif letter is completely different. I only recognized
this
with the sans version.

I have to add, that I use LCD, RGB, and full hinting
