Calc formulas that reference sheets within the same workbook are not properly converted when saving ods to xls or xlsx

The following formula is a simple array lookup and linear interpolation where the look up value is in the same sheet as the formula and the array is in a sheet named i7.

The formula piece i7.$L$1:$L$15 is converted to ‘i7’!$L$1:$L$15 as it should.

The formula piece “i7.K” is not converted.

Perhaps I there is a better way to say “i7.K”&MATCH(…)?

Formula in Calc:

=INDIRECT(“i7.K”&MATCH(B22,i7.$L$1:$L$15,1))+(B22-INDIRECT(“i7.L”&MATCH(B22,i7.$L$1:$L$15,1)))*(INDIRECT(“i7.K”&MATCH(B22,i7.$L$1:$L$15,1)+1)-INDIRECT(“i7.K”&MATCH(B22,i7.$L$1:$L$15,1)))/(INDIRECT(“i7.L”&MATCH(B22,i7.$L$1:$L$15,1)+1)-INDIRECT(“i7.L”&MATCH(B22,i7.$L$1:$L$15,1)))

Formula when saved as xls:

=INDIRECT(“i7.K”&MATCH(B22,‘i7’!$L$1:$L$15,1))+(B22-INDIRECT(“i7.L”&MATCH(B22,‘i7’!$L$1:$L$15,1)))*(INDIRECT(“i7.K”&MATCH(B22,‘i7’!$L$1:$L$15,1)+1)-INDIRECT(“i7.K”&MATCH(B22,‘i7’!$L$1:$L$15,1)))/(INDIRECT(“i7.L”&MATCH(B22,‘i7’!$L$1:$L$15,1)+1)-INDIRECT(“i7.L”&MATCH(B22,‘i7’!$L$1:$L$15,1)))

This is a bug, or missing functionality. The formula piece “i7.K” should be converted to “i7!K”

I would like this reported as a bug please.
