<pre>I encountered this same problem in ConTeXt, and originally reported here
<<a href="http://tracker.luatex.org/view.php?id=1006">http://tracker.luatex.org/view.php?id=1006</a>>
I solved the problem by editing the font as such
On my mac I open DejaVuSerif.sft with FontForge
>From menu select Element > Font info
>From side bar select Lookups
Select 'liga' Standard Ligatures - Without dotless i
click [UP] button to move it above 'liga' Standard Ligatures
Click [OK]
And compile the font.
copied the font to
/usr/local/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/fonts/truetype/public/dejavu
and now ffi ligatures work.
This was needed for all 8 DejaVuSerif* fonts.</pre>
