I found out that the crash does not occur if "locale" is selected under Edit/Preferences/Date&Time. Any setting other than "locale" crashes the program when trying to display a register - even if the selected setting would result in the same format as "locale".
I will wait until the latest gnucash release appears in debian to see whether the bug has been fixed in mainline. If not, I will post a bug report to gnucash.org. Regards Alan Krempler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
