Package: xcalc
Version: 1.0.5
Problem: Input digits after the decimal separator (comma in German) are ignored for computation.
Steps to reproduce:
A. Make sure that the LANG shell variable is set to "de_DE.UTF-8" .
B. Start xcalc from the shell.
C. Using mouse, press the following screen buttons in the xcalc window:
1
.
1
x^2
D. Observe that the result is 1, which is wrong, since the square of 1.1 is 1.21.
If in step A the LANG would be set to, say, "en", the result would be a correct 1.21.
If in step A we keep the German locale but in step C we would press pi, and then x^2, the after-dot-digits would be considered again.
Please fix the bug!
Best regards,
Jaakov
