JabRef version

Latest development branch build (please note build date below)

Operating system

GNU / Linux

Details on version and operating system

JabRef 5.16--2024-09-17--ed0e90e Linux 6.10.10-200.fc40.x86_64 amd64 Java 21.0.2 JavaFX 23+29

Checked with the latest development build (copy version output from About dialog)

  • I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.
  • I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

Given a library that contains inter alia entries with the keys Law:2009The and acker1990hierarchies

I am puzzled:

  1. search for Law:2009The
  2. does not deliver results

However

  1. search for acker1990hierarchies
  2. does deliver results

why is that?
