>Description:
Update the port to the latest version:

The upstream developers for this fonts now ship individually the
otf and ttf font types.

Users of Apache OpenOffice and LibreOffice will usually prefer the forked linuxlibertine-g ttf variant since those include support for silgraphite.

Given that Adobe and Google have worked out providing high quality
CFF support to the next version of the FreeType project I think
it is convenient to start using the OpenType Fonts in this port.
