Package: synaptic
Version: 0.81.2
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

Hello,

Search in Synaptic Package Manager is not working as expected when the 
descriptions contain Latin diacritics (accents). Synaptic Package Manager seems 
unable to tell that "é" is just a lower-case variant of "É".

For example, the description of gparted in French is "Éditeur de partition". If 
one searches "Éditeur de partition", gparted appears. If one searches "éditeur 
de partition" (lower-case "é"), gparted doesn't appear.
