Bug ID: 458389
Summary: Kunitconversion displays output for gallons - litres
as value using US gallons, rather than Imperial
gallons - but does not clearly specify
Product: frameworks-kunitconversion
Version: 5.54.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: jl...@kde.org
Reporter: nickmdow...@gmail.com
CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Type in 1 gallon or other amount in krunner
2.
3.
OBSERVED RESULT
Result listed is 3.7854099999999997 l - which is correct only for US Gallons,
not imperial.
EXPECTED RESULT
Any of the below would be a more helpful result:
1) Output should make it clear that it has done the conversion from a US
gallon, not imperial - or supply a separate result for each of the conversions.
It could also warn that US / Imperial gallons are different.
2) Program should allow user to specify e.g. 1 US Gallon, 1 Imperial Gallon,
etc and then give the correct result for that. OR it should use localisation
settings to guess at what the user means.
