Package: jabref Version: 2.3.1-3 Severity: critical --- Please enter the report below this line. --- Jabref is broken since it's impossible to use the Groups interface panel. When the user selects a group item, left click and tries to, for example, "Edit Group" or "Add subgroup" the result is always a Java exception where nothing happens for the user.
The good news is that I have tested Jabref 2.4b and the problem seems to be fixed there =) The java exception stack trace message: Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The encoded form specification must not be empty, or whitespace.
