Well, DejaVu is glyph-enhanced Vera, so theoretically they should look the same for latin text.
Bitstream Vera covers basically 8-bit ASCII only.

Yes I know. I was as surprised as you are, but in ubuntu 606, there definitely is a huge difference between both.

BTW, recently U++ is able to cover the most important range 256 - 256+128 in Bitstream Vera (not only) by glyph composition (you need C with caron, U++ prints C and caron...). This AFAIK covers at least EE latina languages (it certainly does help in CZ Wink
