Ha! Yes, I understand.
You're using the older "SIMPLE" booking method.
In this method, the inference of cost was never supported.
This is why it fails.
What's adding to the confusion here is that at some point I had to make
grammar changes that made this syntax valid for the new booking algorithm
(where this type of interpolation is legal and works fine), so instead of
getting a syntax error, you're now getting this error, which incorrectly
seems to hint that automatically inferring the cost ought to work. It
should not. An more accurate reaction from Beancount would be to reject the
syntax.
You should either:
a) add an explicit cost to your augmenting postings
b) switch to the newer algorithm, e.g. option "booking_algorithm" "FULL"
I'd recommend (b).
If you update from head (from the source code) that's the new default.
I hope this helps,
