            Bug ID: 142173
           Summary: Find and Replace doesn't discriminate between the
                    letters 'a', 'å' and 'ä'
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: peter at petertoth.se

Description:
When using the Find and Replace feature, searching for the letter 'a' also
returns all occurrences of the letters 'å' and 'ä', and vice versa. This
drastically reduces the usefulness of the feature when editing Swedish
documents.

This happens both in "normal" mode and regex mode.

Note that when the Find feature correctly discriminates between the three
characters.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a new document and type the letters aåä into it
2. Edit -> Find and Replace
3. Enter the letter a in the Find field, then click Find Next repeatedly. 

Actual Results:
The Find and Replace feature matches all three characters, although I was
searching for only one of them.

Expected Results:
It would match only the first letter (a) and not the subsequent ones.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
