Version: 4.1 (using KDE 4.5.85) OS: Linux First of all, I don't really know if this bug belongs to Nepomuk, Strigi or Dolphin. Mi name is Álvaro (with an accented A) and I have a lot of documents indexed by Nepomuk (actually I guess Strigi indexed them) with my name in their contents. If I try to search for "Álvaro" (with an accent), I get no results. If I search for "Alvaro", I get the documents that contain either "Alvaro" or "Álvaro". I've tried to do the same with other accented words and the effect is the same. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Index with Nepomuk a document containing an accented word. 2. Open Dolphin and try to search for that word using the search bar. Actual Results: No results are shown. Expected Results: Documents containing the word should be shown to the user. OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.35-23-generic Compiler: cc
I have a similar situation in 4.5.95 (4.6 RC2) on Kubuntu 10.10 (32 and 64 bit), only I get no search results all for accented characters. In my case nepomuk/strigi does not associate e.g. á with a or ö with o, which seems to be what happens for the original reporter.
The next version of Virtuoso will contain a new configuration parameter that normalizes accents for full text queries. I already added support for that configuration to Nepomuk. Thus, it will be used as soon as the new Virtuoso is installed. However, only newly added text is affected. I will experiment with updating though.

When the next version of Virtuoso will be available? On the other side, queries in KDE 4.5 works well with unicode characters, in my case I use many Corean and Japanese characters and result was accurate so I wonder if this could be considered as a virtuoso problem.
