[Kmymoney-devel] [Bug 309630] Crash every time saving any transaction category change after attempting to edit multiple transactions

--- Comment #2 from matt wilkie <maphew at gmail.com> ---
Perhaps this should be a different bug report, but when I use "File > Save
As" the following error dialog is shown "Could not start the process Cannot
talk to klauncher: the name org.kde.launcher was not provided by any
.service files".

After I dismissed that dialog I was able to save an .anon.xml file.

I get the same error again whenever I use the "File > Open" dialog.

I was eventually able to open anon.xml by using "File > Recent" instead.
The account names are all replaced by numbers, not unexpected. The dollar
amounts shown for the various accounts and their transactions are
completely wrong -- apparently I have half a million dollars coming and
going! I'm guessing this is also part of the anonymising function?

In any case, after opening .anon.xml I was able to assign categories to
different transactions, AND, after that when I re-opened my main accounting
.kmy file categories worked there too!

So the problem seems to have resolved itself. I have attached the anon.xml
file anyway in case it's still of interest.

thanks for your time,

-matt
