[Python-apps-team] Bug#776078: kupfer: calculator plugin: decimal separator is not localized

[Oliver Grimm]

Package: kupfer
Version: 0+v208-5
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n

Dear Maintainer,

kupfer does not correctly handle localized decimal separators with the
calculator plugin.
To reproduce try:
- be sure to run kupfer with a locale that uses a different decimal separator
than "." (here: German locale with ",")
- start kupfer
- be sure to enable the calculator plugin in the settings
- type "=" to start the calculator mode
- enter "1000 * 1,1"
- kupfer returns the error message "complex() argument must be a string or
number"
- typing "=1000*1.1" works fine, though.


regards,
Oliver
