Bug#888248: gnome-calculator: Gnome-calculator abort at startup

[Emmanuel Fleury]

Package: gnome-calculator
Version: 3.26.0-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Since my last update (debian unstable), I noticed that the
Gnome-calculator software is no more usable. It fail on an assertion at
start-up.

Here is a example on how to produce the bug on a terminal:

#> gnome-calculator
../../src/init2.c:52: MPFR assertion failed: p >= 2 && p <=
((mpfr_prec_t)((mpfr_uprec_t)(~(mpfr_uprec_t)0)>>1))
Aborted


Feel free to ask me anything that can help to try on my system if you
cannot reproduce the bug (I tried to ltrace and strace the software but
it didn't give much more information).
