Public bug reported: When running gnucash in xmonad on Lubuntu 13.10, edits on the grid are not reflected and updated on screen. This behaviour can be reproduced on gnumeric when trying to edit data on the grid widget. In gnumeric, if once a cell is edited on the edit line at the top, it then becomes possible to edit in-cell. No such opportunity exists in gnucash.
This is not an xmonad problem. I installed gnome and it didn't work there. I tried it in a lubuntu session and the problem remained. It would appear, at first blush, to be a problem perhaps around libgtk2-perl 2:1.247-2 amd64 Perl interface to the 2.x series of the Gimp Toolkit library libgtk2.0-0:amd64 2.24.20-1ubuntu1 amd64 GTK+ graphical user interface library libgtk2.0-cil 2.12.10-5 amd64 CLI binding for the GTK+ toolkit 2.12 libgtk2.0-common 2.24.20-1ubuntu1 all common files for the GTK+ graphical user interface library these libraries. gnucash was working fine in xmonad under ubuntu 13.10 before I clean installed lubuntu 13.10. Thank you for your attention.
