Bug Description
Binary package hint: gcalctool
(1) Enable "Show thousands separators"
(2) Select "Programming" mode
(3) Select "Decimal"
(4) Enter 1024
(5) Change the base to "Hexadecimal"
(6) Incorrect result ... we get 1024 interspersed with subscript "10"s
If you now disable "Show thousands separators" and repeat, we get the correct value displayed.
I think the commas must be confusing the string parser.
