Hello,

I am having a strange problem with greek letters in math formulas in openoffice.
I am using version 2.0.4 in Debian Etch.

I am making a presentation, and the day before I added some formulas containing
greek letters. I entered them by typing %mu, %varepsilon...  They displayed
correctly, and there was no problem.
Today I wanted to modify the formulas, to add some superscripts. I open the
presentation file, an odp file, and the greek letters appear correctly. However,
as soon as I double click on any formula, the greek letter mu is replaced by the
latin letters "mu" and there is no way to make the greek letter reappear, even
though in the code in the lower part of the screen nothing is changed, namely, I
have %mu. It seems almost like the % symbol is being ignored... but only after I
open the formula, and even if I change nothing.
This does not happen for all greek letters. For instance, %mu is displayed as
"mu" while %varepsilon is displayed correctly. It seems like only some greek
letters are affected by this ... bug?

What is happening? Is this a feature I may have triggered accidentally, or is
this a bug? How can I go around it? May this be solved in 2.1?

In debian the 2.1 package is still in Experimental, and I am a little reluctant
to install it for fear it might make things worse.

Thanks for your help.
