preserveTaxonomyNames FALSE not changing single Polish characters ( Ł ł )

[idarek]

$ hugo version 0.74.3

I have converted my blog to Hugo and trying to match old links with new one.
Hugo by default generating tags with accented characters as I see. As I don't want that, I added preserveTaxonomyNames in FALSE state to config and in most cases its sorted, but not all characters are changed.

This is not working for Polish language
ł > l

@bep could you advise, are fix for this been implemented in 0.75 released now?

According to https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/what-part-of-hugo-is-responsible-for-changing-characters/28578 it's only one single character that is not transformed. All other Polish special characters are transformed.

I don't pretend to understand Unicode normalization and transformation, but here are some clues.

I believe the transformation is happening here, by way of UnicodeSanitize.

We're doing Unicode normalization and removing the Mn category of Unicode characters. While playing around with the logic, I discovered that ł falls into the Ll category of lowercase letters.

Yes, its fall (shall be changed to) Ll and been surprised that all other characters (ąśćźżęóń) are converted correctly but not this one single character. Any chance to implement a fix for that somehow?

[idarek]

Hi, Just want to bump and ask if there is any progress with fixing issue with this single character in polish that shall be converted from "ł" to "l"

I think ł is not changed, because is incorrectly interpreted as equivalent of £ pound symbol Ł or other currency that use that but may be wrong

Problem remains on Hugo v0.96, ł and Ł are the only polish letters that are not converted in slugs.

The problem remains on Hugo v0.111.3, ł and Ł are the only Polish letters that are not converted in slugs due to confusion of this symbol with the pound sterling symbol £ (U+00A3).

The preserveTaxonomyNames configuration option was removed in v0.55.0. The desired functionality is proposed in #9134.
