Package: fonts-linuxlibertine
Version: 5.3.0-2

Expected result:

 $ fc-match 'Linux Libertine O,Times'
 LinLibertine_R.otf: "Linux Libertine O" "Regular"
 $ fc-match 'Linux Libertine,Times'
 LinLibertine_R.otf: "Linux Libertine O" "Regular"
 
Actual result:

 $ fc-match 'Linux Libertine O,Times'
 LinLibertine_R.otf: "Linux Libertine O" "Regular"
 $ fc-match 'Linux Libertine,Times'
 texgyretermes-regular.otf: "TeX Gyre Termes" "Regular"

Details:

In the file /etc/fonts/conf.avail/30-fonts-texgyre-aliases.conf
installed by fonts-texgyre, I see the following:

	<alias binding="same">
	  <family>Times</family>
	  <accept><family>TeX Gyre Termes</family></accept>
	</alias>

Also in /usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/30-metric-aliases.conf
installed by fontconfig-config, I see:

        <alias binding="same">
          <family>Times</family>
          <accept>
          <family>TeX Gyre Termes</family>
          <family>Nimbus Roman No9 L</family>
          </accept>
        </alias>

In /etc/fonts/conf.avail/90-fonts-linux-libertine.conf, I see:

	<alias>
		<family>Linux Libertine</family>
		<accept><family>Linux Libertine O</family></accept>
	</alias>

If I change <alias> to <alias binding="same"> in the latter, I get the
expected result from fc-match 'Linux Libertine,Times'.
