Hi there!

After updating my drupal to the latest recommended version 7.x-3.1 I got some problems with default drupal search for cyrillic.

Before:
used to be like that

After:
How I updated to the latest 7.x-3.1

BTW, when I use the same search phrase without Cyrillic ... it works fine.

Luckily i always back up my db before updating so I easily restored My previous db and files ... but guys WTF ? You should pay more attention to testing, before you put that release as "Recommended".

This was outlined in the 7.x-3.1 release notes (#1612422: transliteration 7.x-3.1), and here is the issue where this change was introduced: #1058064: Transliterate search string and index.

You can disable the new behavior by going to admin/config/search/settings and unchecking the 'Transliterate search index and searched strings.' setting.

The new functionality is great.
But switching it on by default may cause irritation, because you need to rebuild the search index in order to make it work properly.
Shouldn't there be a hint somewhere, that the search index needs to be rebuilt after switching transliteration on?
