Title:
  evince does not display ligatures

Status in fontconfig package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  While there's Bug #1325230 with the same title and the linked PDFs there are working fine here (displaying "fi" correctly) there seems to be still some bug regarding ligatures. 
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/1325230

  I have some PDFs substituting Helvetica (and others) with TeX Gyre
  Heros and showing no "fi" ligature.  I attached a patch I derived from
  the patch in Bug #1325230 which is working fine. Now it uses Nimbus
  Sans L and the ligatures are fine.
