GSoC '21 KMyMoney : I am stuck.

[Suraj Kumar Mahto]

Hello,
I think I have fixed the crash bug. Thank you very much for the help. I did
the changes in kmymoney repo only and I have pushed those changes to
https://invent.kde.org/surajsloth/kmymoney/-/tree/gsoc21 . I have pushed
the changes. Although the new quote button is disabled. That is needed to
be figured out.

My forked changes(gsoc21 branch) can be merged into gsoc21 branch of the
upstream repo. This way I am dealing with a forked repo also and my entire
work is there is a separate branch of upstream repo. What do you think
about this?

Regards
Suraj Kumar Mahto
