don't understand this. I added one book to library today, epub,
author Reza Kahlili.

author sort insists on setting this in all caps, as KAHLILI, REZA
i.e. if I delete author sort & click the button to generate it from author, it is generated in CAPS

if I manually type the author sort correctly, as Kahili, Reza then calibre flags it in red indicating a mis-match ?

doesn't happen with other books. I looked at several existing ones & always the author sort case matches author case.

I have shut down, & restarted calibre - but no change for this specific book bug.

NB the book did origianally have the author name in caps, I changed it to sentence case via edit metadata but maybe it is still lurking somewhere in ALL CAPS ?

how do I track down & fix this annoyance ?
