Bug Description
With medium and full hinting, the lowercase 'u' appears to be excessively tilted in comparison to other glyphs. I use the font at 10 points size and 86 dpi, and the italic text displayed by the popcon tab in update-manger demonstrates the problem.
When using slight hinting or no hinting, the lowercase 'u' appears to be tilted to the same degree as other glyphs.
