It isn't using Linux Libertine at all, from what I can tell. Looking at the CSS, it has sans serif fonts listed for the text; I think the page itself has changed style. It's no longer a good reference for this bug report. So I've installed ‘gwaterfall’ to ensure I'm looking at the actual font. In that program I can select “Linux Libertine O C” (the only entry I have for the Linux Libertine font), and I see the described problem with the ‘[’ and ‘]’ characters at smaller sizes. I've attached to this message another screen shot, of the ‘gwaterfall’ program displaying the font, and circling in red the areas I'm referring to. You can see, by zooming in, that the characters are misaligned with each other at many font sizes. -- \ “I thought I'd begin by reading a poem by Shakespeare, but then | `\ I thought ‘Why should I?
