The following bug has been logged on the website: Bug reference: 15347 Logged by: Tasos Maschalidis Email address: tas.o.s@hotmail.com PostgreSQL version: 9.3.18 Operating system: Ubuntu 4.8.4 Description: Call to unaccent function with greek characters does not return the greek characters without the accents as expected (not even just the few diacritics used in modern Greek). While the customization of unaccent.rules is an option for dedicated servers, most cloud services do not provide write access to the file system and thus this is limiting the unaccent feature for greek characters. This forces us to find workarounds for something relatively simple (just some extra characters with diacritics in the official dictionary).
