Description: If a have a DOCUMENT.odt in a folder where there is a special character (ÅÄÖ) that I use in Swedish, I am not able to open the document and it will write "File does not exist". All due, if I change the folder it will work, sometimes it works by changing the name of the document. This happened to three previously working documents which I created through Libre Writter and this started about a week ago, maybe a new update caused this? My version is: 5.4.6.2 OS: Kubuntu 17.10.1 Steps to Reproduce: 1. ? Actual Results: File does not exist, cannot open the document inside my desired detestation. Expected Results: Opened the documents. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0
I updated to v6.04.2 and installed the Swedish language pack. This problem still is not solved. How to replicate this bug: 1. Documents saved to "/media/USERNAME/Backup NAME/Backup DATE/#TEXT/ÅÄÖ/" 2. Opening the documents inside the folder. "/media/USERNAME/Backup NAME/Backup DATE/#TEXT/ÅÄÖ/NAME OF THE FILE ÅÄÖ.odt does not exist". 3. Move the documents from "/media/USERNAME/Backup NAME/Backup DATE/#TEXT/ÅÄÖ/" to Desktop -> Now working perfect for one file but not for two others.
Update 2: I found out why one document worked, because it had no special characters. Previously if I would rename a document that showed "File does not exist" to for example 1.odt, it would work. HOWEVER, if I change it to "Å.odt" it will not be detected and a error will show up "Å.odt does not exist. This seems very strange and makes it impossible for me to keep using LibreOffice...
