            Bug ID: 118459
           Summary: Cross references to footnotes are not updated when
                    inserting a new footnote with a lower number
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: claudix.ker...@gmail.com

I have noticed that cross references to footnotes are not updated when I insert
a new footnote with a lower number. Let me explain this scenario. 

I start with a document with three lines:

    This is the first line
    This is the second line
    This is the third line

Then I do these steps:

 1. Insert a footnote on the second line, with text "Footnote A"
 2. Insert a cross-reference to that footnote on the third line and format the
number as superscript.

After this, I have the following text (NOTE: I use the caret ^ to depict a
superscript)

    This is the first line 
    This is the second line ^1
    This is the third line ^1

And at the bottom of the page, I have this footnote:

    1 Footnote A

Good, so far. Now I want to put a footnote on the first line, with text
"Footnote B". Then, I get:

    This is the first line ^1
    This is the second line ^2
    This is the third line ^1

As you can see, the third line's cross reference is not updated. At the bottom
of the page I have the expected footnotes:

    1 Footnote B
    2 Footnote A

The footnote references should be updated whenever the footnotes change. I
confirm this unexpected behaviour even after Tools>Update>Update All.
