Whenever typing the characters á é í ó and ú a new line is created right after I type the ´character (cursor shoud wait for the letter, but it doesn't and creates a new line.

Some more details would be welcome. Which language/ keyboard? My US qwerty keyboard doesn't have dedicated á é é or ó  

or are we talking about 'a' followed ' (which replaced by á)
Comment 2 Artur Correia 2021-10-18 20:01:38 UTC
thanks for your reply
my language is portuguese
keyboard is "generic 101 key"
no dedicated characters, rather typing a after typing ' 
i use libreoffice since the very beggining (actually since openoffice). never had this happen before

What is the most recent version you used, where this was not a problem?
Comment 4 Artur Correia 2021-10-19 14:30:05 UTC
I don't know. I just upgraded my kubuntu distro and this just happened

Hello again
Just installed LibreOffice 2.2.2
The problem persists
After further testing I found out that the character inserting a new line is the ´ character, instead of the usual behaviour which would be waiting for a character (a, e i o u) to be inserted.

Does this still happen with version 7.4? If your distro doesn't have it, you could try an appimage: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel/Linux#Automated_installation

I don't see the problem in KDE UI.

If you still see the bug, you could also try with the generic UI by launching from the command line with

SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen libreoffice

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED, if the problem persists. Change to RESOLVED WORKSFORME, if the problem went away.
