This got fixed in gnome-calculator 3.10.3 based on my testing. Can somebody look at whether it's feasible to package this for 14.04?

"2" is displayed in bold (pane 2). - Type "+1" (pane 3). - Press enter. "3" is displayed in bold (pane 4). Now comes the issue: - Press enter [*]. "2+1", with a bold "2", is displayed (pane 5). - Press enter. "4" is displayed in bold (pane 6). - Press enter [*]. "2+1", with a bold "2", is displayed (pane 7). - Press enter. "5" is displayed in bold (pane 8). - ... It would appear that after pressing enter to go from the result to the previous expression, the portion in bold font really refers to the current last answer, "Ans" as denoted typically in calculators. Instead of the current last answer, gnome-calculator is incorrectly displaying what "Ans" was *before the expression was written*, but it then uses the current last answer in the operation, resulting in the nonsensical 2+1=4, etc., exemplified above. "Ans" (or equivalent) should be displayed in these cases.
