Title:
  Unicode 25D2 "Circle With Lower Half Black" and 25D3 swapped in DejaVu
  Sans and DejaVu Serif

Status in DejaVu Fonts:
  Fix Released
Status in “fonts-dejavu” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The Unicode character 25D2 "CIRCLE WITH LOWER HALF BLACK" and 25D3
  "CIRCLE WITH UPPER HALF BLACK" are swapped in most fonts, including
  major ones such as Arial, Times New Roman, and the Ubuntu fonts.  The
  only fonts I could find which have it _correct_ are TakaoPGothic,
  Lucida Sans Unicode, FreeMono, FreeSans, FreeSerif, DejaVu Sans Mono,
  and Arial Unicode MS.

  The official Unicode description for these characters can be found at
  http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U25A0.pdf
