Description wildhoney 2003-12-11 12:58:46 UTC 
Internationalization (Russian) trivial bug in Math. It is impossible to insert
Greek letters such as %varphi, %varpi etc. (in Russian they are inserted by
constructions like %альтернат.фи etc.), while other letters such as %phi or %pi
are inserted correctly both in Russian and in English locale environment.

SBA->Wildhoney: Due to the fact that your description lost a little information
(due to code page/special character problems, I guess), I think a bugdoc showing
the items you'd like to insert would be very helpful.
Please attach a bugdoc and tell more about your Linux system.
Reassigned to Ulf.

I bring my excuse for incomplete information. My Linux Distribution is Fedora
Core 1 (I have also run OOO 1.1 on RHL9), but this i10n bug is not specific for
Linux, but also does take place under Russian versions of MS Windows. Some Greek
letters can not be entered in Math (in Russian locale in Linux or in Russian
Windows versions): constructions like %varphi, %varepsilon, %varpi do not work
properly, while other ones like %phi, %epsilon, %pi do work. Constructions such
as %phi here are presented as they are entered in English environment (not Russian).

L10N team changed all Math macros to english. The problem is resolved.
Math cannot parse macros with spaces and dots inside.
Comment 4 ulf.stroehler 2004-09-29 13:37:28 UTC 
The problem seems to be resolved.
OK to close the issue as fixed?
If you have any obligations feel free to reopen. Thank you all.
