Bug#240232: calctool: Constants don't work with german locale

Package: calctool
Version: 4.3.16-2
Severity: normal

The fractional part (after the decimal point) of the constants is
truncated when using a locale with a comma as decimal separator. Setting
LC_NUMERIC to C fixes the bug, as unsetting LANG does.
