I modified the bug to add necessary information for a sync request (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess).
** Summary changed: - Multiple bugs, instabilities and superseded data combined in outdated package of qalculate + Sync qalculate-gtk 3.3.0-1 (universe) from Debian experimental (main) - Multiple bugs, instabilities and superseded data combined in outdated package of qalculate ** Description changed: + Please sync qalculate-gtk 3.3.0-1 (universe) from Debian experimental + (main) + Qalculate in the Ubuntu repositories is severely outdated. Compared to 2.8.2 in the repos which is more than 2 years old, 9 major releases have been published (https://qalculate.github.io/news.html). These include many bugfixes and improvements which makes it recommendable to update the packages for the next Ubuntu release. I personally experienced multiple crashes, bugs and outdated data in the repository version. Not to mention missing features like the improved unit conversions. I cannot list them in detail anymore because I always - install the newer qalculate packages (3.3) from debian sid at any - computer I am working. The official Ubuntu version has become unusable - for me. + install the newer qalculate packages (3.3) from debian experimental at + any computer I am working.
