it is working for q=chrétien and find documents with "chretien" but
searching for q=chré* does not work, but q=chre* works fine.
is this a bug or I am doing something wrong?
It's a bit tricky here.... Lucene's QueryParser, the heart of Solr's
query parsing, does not analyze wildcard query parts. Consider
stemmed words, for example, on why that is a problem. In this case
it does make sense to run it through a filter that normalizes
diacritics on characters, but unfortunately Solr doesn't support what
you need at this point.
