I tried to replicate this bug using GnuCash version 1:2.4.7-1 and in my setup the KP_decimal key works fine (i.e. it produces a comma in GnuCash, since I use a French locale). Note that I had to change the keyboard configuration in Gnome to use "abstract separators" for the keypad delete, as you mentionned it. My understanding is that the bug you experienced corresponds to the following upstream bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=618434 Debian version 2.2.9-6 introduced a patch for SCIM input which is mentionned in the upstream bug report as the cause of the problem, so this is consistent with the version mentionned by the submitter of this bug. Since the problem was fixed upstream before the release of version 2.4.0, my understanding is that this bug was fixed in Debian version 1:2.4.0-2. My intention is therefore to close this bug within a month or so, unless you disagree with the above conclusions.
