--- Comment #8 from João Paulo <[email protected]> ---
I can confirm this bug still exists on:

Version: 24.2.1.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: db4def46b0453cc22e2d0305797cf981b68ef5ac
CPU threads: 8; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 22631; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: pt-BR (pt_BR); UI: pt-BR
Calc: threaded

However, I noticed that, at least in PT-BR, the character U+002d is shown as
correct, but the character U+2010 is shown as incorrect, when hyphenating words
such as: ampliá‐la (verb+hyphen+pronoun).

To my point of view as a user, both characters should be considered correct for
hyphenation, even if the technically more correct character (unambiguous and
defined on the Unicode Standard) is U+2010.

It may seem as a frivolous request as the U+002d is in the keyboard and the
U+2010 is not; however:

* there are fonts that show different glyphs for each of them (the height
and/or the size is adjusted), and the difference is more noticeable when using
italic or bold formatting;
* one of the use cases of LibreOffice is to create EPUBs and PDFs, and
beautiful books use proper typographic characters or even obey a style guide
(the Chicago Manual of Style is one of the best known).
