Note: on a default Ubuntu install there's no font to render Old
Hungarian. I downloaded the font from https://github.com/OldHungarian
/old-hungarian-font and unpacked the ttf file in ~/.fonts/ to get the
document to render as intended.

That's interesting. I tried the following Ubuntu/Libreoffice versions:

  6.0.6.2 from the Ubuntu 18.04 repositories, double-click to select a
word in Old Hungarian works as expected

  6.1.2.1 from the Ubuntu 18.10 repositories, works as expected too

  6.1.3.2 snap (candidate channel) on 18.04 and 18.10, works as expected
too

  6.1.3.2 snap (stable channel) on 18.04, I can reproduce the problem
you described

So it looks like this is a problem that affects only the snap in the
stable channel. The snap in the candidate channel was rebuilt against
core18 on bionic, see https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/call-for-testing-
libreoffice-based-on-core18/8620 for details.

Can you confirm that switching to the snap in the candidate channel
fixes the problem for you?

Title:
  [snap] Double-clicking on Old Hungarian doesn't select the whole word
  in Writer

Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I recently noticed that there is a regression that was introduced
  somewhere between LibreOffice 6.0.6.2 and 6.1.3.2, which I installed
  as a snap (version number 90) on Ubuntu 18.04. Steps to reproduce:

  1) Write a paragraph in Old Hungarian (Unicode block U+10C80 to
  U+10CFF).

  2) Double-click anywhere in the text.

  Double-clicking should select the whole word, and it works that way
  for most scripts (Latin, Arabic, and even Gothic), but for some reason
  for Old Hungarian, double-clicking only selects the individual
  character under the cursor. In LibreOffice 6.0.6.2 selecting Old
  Hungarian works as expected. For a sample paragraph in Old Hungarian,
  see the attached document.
