galculator limits max number of bits to 22 in hex mode

[dan]

Binary package hint: galculator

In jaunty running galculator 1.3.4-1ubuntu1:

Go to Edit->Preferences and under the Numbers tab choose to configure number base Hexadecimal. The 'number of bits' field can't be adjusted above 22 when in the past this value could always be set to 32. If I edit ~/.galculator and set the hex_bits parameter by hand to 32 in which galculator does operate with 32 bits in hex mode. If you then open up the prefs dialog again, the number of bits reverts back to 22 (in ~/.galculator as wel).

I have this same problem if I compile the package from source. However, if I compile the source on another distros (gentoo and FC8) I don't see this issue. I assume this is actually not a galculator problem but gtk or something, but I don't know how to track it down.

Thank you for your bug report. Is it still an issue for you ? I can't reproduce it on Ubuntu 10.10.

Seems to no longer be an issue on 10.04 or 10.10.

Thanks for the quick reply. Since it appears to be fixed, I'm closing the bug report.
