Title:
  Need to support GPOS kerning

Status in The OpenOffice.org Suite:
  Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  The standard word kerning on the Ubunbu Beta version of OO.org is just
  really bad.  I would think this to be one of the basics that OO would
  work on but maybe they know something I don't.

  Just type a few sentences in the default font and you'll see what I
  mean.  It is bad.

  When does the Liberty Fonts start to take over?  That sounds like it
  was a mission of those fonts.
