I copied LinLibertine_M.otf to ~/.fonts, and run fc-cache -vf.
Linux LIbertine Mono O shows up in a generic font-list (like GVim's), but doesn't show up in monospaced fonts list (like KDE's system settings, Konsole's font list, etc.).
$ fc-list :spacing=mono | grep Libertine | wc -l
0
$ fc-list --version
fontconfig version 2.9.0
