Are you absolutely certain? What version of ledger do you have installed?
Which operating system are you using? How did you install ledger (i.e. from
official packages for your system, or did you build it yourself from source)?
What is the exact command you are running? Can you share a minimal snippet of
your ledger file that reproduces the issue (anonymize the accounts & change the
actual values, etc.)? Can you reproduce it with a new minimal ledger file?
For example, what is the output if you run the something like the following
commands (‘$’ represents your command prompt):
$ ledger —version
$ cat >foo.dat <<EOF
2020-12-01 * (1234) Acme, Inc.
expenses:misc \$1,234,567,890.95
assets:checking
EOF
$ ledger -f foo.dat balance
