Just following up on comment 42, I assume the equivalent to be done in LibreOffice at convertWeight() in fontmanager.cxx:

Where do the Ubuntu fonts fall in that scale?
I will try to testload the Ubuntu font in a debug build of LibreOffice, to see what http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/vcl/generic/fontmanager/fontconfig.cxx#545 says about it.
