Steps to reproduce the issue
Use the old-style router
Create categories and corresponding menus (we use a combination of article lists and blogs)
Search for a keywords from an article or category
Expected result
Returned links should be relative to the menus
Actual result
Returned links are not related to the menus
System information (as much as possible)
Joomla 3.8.7
Additional comments
We were having problems with broken links from our own layout and found the issue was related to joomla-cms/components/com_content/helpers/route.php, which had new code unhelpfully including layouts when not necessary. This looks to have been resolved in the latest version, not yet release.
Could that bug in route.php also cause this problem we're finding with search results?

Yes, sorry. Was a bit unclear.
We're getting search results links formatted like this:
/122-fines-and-penalties?layout=
/122-fines-and-penalties/826-fine-penalties-data-protection-policy
When the fines-and-penalties category has a legitimate menu at /legal/fines-penalties
So, there's no menu for the results. Needless to say it's a bit of a disaster. The target links pick up the home page as the default menu, unfortunately the home page has a lot of other stuff going on and the copy is buried. This wasn't happening before.
@waveywhite "?layout=" looks like fix by #20229 if you wanna check?

Hi @franz-wohlkoenig
That sorted the layout= issue.
I also found that the menu structure had a problem which was contributing as well, so our mistake there.

from the information described it is impossible to answer.
you should know that if you have more than one way (menu) to reach an article then the one with the lowest itemid will always be returned
