Which version of LibreOffice started including the Caladea and Carlito 
fonts?

I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my desktop [replacing Linux Mint for 
printer issues] and it installs 4.2.x.
I had 4.4.x installed before and it did not install those fonts.  I 
copied the .font folder and made sure my font were re installed after 
the OS replacement was finished.

So whatever version of 4.4,x I was using did not have those fonts 
included, I wonder which version does.
