[Kmymoney-devel] [Bug 249844] wrong memo field after duplicating and editing transaction

[Χρήστος]

Sorry about my doubts, but my message at the "original" KDE maillist
archives in
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kmymoney-devel/2010-September/003361.html 
it is shown in my PC exactly as in the attached screenshot! (only one
paragraph!)

Given this (which I can't explain and for this I ask if there is any
kind of inconsistency at KDE track system), I thing that it is a little 
undeserved to me to be accused for "baseless accusations". 

For me, 1+1 in a compatible system MUST ALWAYS make 2, not 3. 
And no reason such as "I contribute, YOU not" may change this! Period.

(PS: this message DOES need approval from you ! -due the size of the
