> Description:
> In the Linux installation (6.3.1~rc2-0ubuntu0.18.04.1~lo1) on Linuxmint, the
> Linux Biolinum font installed is called : Linux Biolinum O
> In Windows installation, 6.3.1, The Linux Biolinum font installed is called
> : Linux Biolinum G.
They are not the same. The O fonts are the original ones, whereas the G fonts
are modified to include Graphite features, see https://numbertext.org/linux/.

Under Windows you get the G version, because that what is bundled with LO.
Under Linux you're not using the TDF build of LO, but the build supplied by
your distro, and it's their decision to not follow our font bundling. So what
you get is the original O version from the system fonts-linuxlibertine package,
which has nothing to do with LO. There's nothing we can do about it.

> Steps to Reproduce:
> 1. Create a ODT document on Windows with Linux Biolinum G font with LO 6.3.1
> 2. Open it on Linux with the same version
> 
> Actual Results:
> The font Linux Biolinum is not recognized
> 
> Expected Results:
> It would be great if the same font is here with the same name.
The solution is simple: Just download the G version of the font and install it
on your Linux system.
