Package: gnucash
Version: 1:2.6.13-1
Severity: normal
Since upgrading to 2.6.13 from 2.6.4 in stable the autocomplete has been
very buggy and bordering unusable. Here is a simple way to reproduce my
problem (I'll attach a screenshot).
1. Create a new file using the standard template
2. In one account add a transaction with description "Monthly ISA
investment"
3. In the same account add another transaction with description
"Mortgage payment"
4. Go to the description field of a new transaction, type the characters
"Mo" and GnuCash autocompletes to "Mortgage payment" and places the
cursor *after* the 't' at the end of "payment", even though it hasn't
got enough input to disabiguate this.
This is quite painful to workaround as GnuCash makes it very difficult
to go back and edit the text without it autocompleting again.
