Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gcalctool
Open Gcalctool, switch to
"Ansicht"-"Wissenschaftlich" (in english i think "view" "scintific")
Klick on drop-down "constants", "edit constants"
Now i tried to add the Boltzmann-Konstante 1,380 650 5 · 10−23 J K−1
But there is a hint at the lower border: "Alle Werte werden zur numerischen
Dezimalbasis angegeben"
So, it doesn't seem to be possible to add a constant like "1.38e-24"
then i tried to add it without e 0.00000000000000000000000013806505 which is
somewhat annoying.
Then I clicked on the new constant and a "0" appeared". Then I switched the
display mode to "scintific" and now the constant
1.380650656e-23 is shown correctly. Even if i switch back to the constant
editing window, the constant is now shown in exponential form,
but can't be edited. Just try to change 1.38e-23 to 1.38e-24.

Gcalctool can't handle small physic constants like the Boltzmann constant
