Bug Description

I have edited tags to transactions in the transaction list. I have added tags that consist of two words "uit eten" and found that in the statistics report they are sees as two tags, so I decided to edit the transactions again and a tag in one word "eten". I saved the transaction list.

When I did this and opened the statistics report again I saw that all my transactions where counted double in the listing of the tag "eten".

So I went back to the transaction list and saw that in every transaction in which I deleted the word "uit" the tag had changed into "eten eten".

The only way to edit the tag of a transaction successfully is to open it, delete the tag, close it, open it again and add the correct tag, close it.

Another strange thing. I had a transaction with the label "eten" and tried to change it to "bier" (the buggy way). Next time I opened it the tags where "eten" "bier" and then two random tags I used at latest last year. However, this behaviour i cannot reproduce. I think after filling and deleting the tag once (and saving it) the bug is fixed in that transaction.

The " are just there for clarity, I didnt use them in the tags.

I use Homebank 5.03 on Ubuntu 14.04.

tags are single word, as it is usually the case in most software, http://homebank.free.fr/help/00-lexicon.html#tags
(the space is used to detect different tags) if you need to use multiple words, separate them by - or _
