Description Ben 2011-02-16 04:50:29 UTC 
I am forwarding this downstream bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcalctool/+bug/717470

(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.
