Bug ID: 406692
Summary: 'st' incorrectly saved as 'st' to .bib file
Product: KBibTeX
Version: 0.8.2
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Loading/saving files
Assignee: fisc...@unix-ag.uni-kl.de
Reporter: kde-bugtrack...@choreutes.de
Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 119513
--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=119513&action=edit
An entry from my .bib file (managed by kbibtex) containing the bug
SUMMARY
The letter combination 'st' is incorrectly written as the unicode ligature
symbol 'st' to the .bib file for most entry fields
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a .bib file in kbibtex
2. Create a new item containing the combination 'st', e.g. in the title or the
author field, if none is already present
3. Save changes to .bib file
4. Inspect the .bib file with a text editor
OBSERVED RESULT
All appearances of 'st' are substituted by 'st' (see attached example)
EXPECTED RESULT
Letter combination 'st' should be saved unchanged as the ligature symbol might
not be displayed in a resulting .pdf file
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: 5.0.7 (Arch Linux)
KDE Plasma Version: -- (not installed)
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.56.0
Qt Version: 5.12.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I recently made the switch from i3wm (x11) to sway (wayland) as my window
manager. I'm mentioning this just for the sake of completeness although I'm
pretty sure the problem did not occur before I updated kbibtex to version 0.8.2
and my window manager should have nothing to do with the file management of
kbibtex anyway.
