[Gramps-users] Bug causing 0.4.1 release in the next couple of days

[Don A. <dal...@us...>]

A bug has been reported against the 0.4.0 release that is nasty enough
that I'm going to release a bug fix release in a day or two. Until then,
here is a description of the problem, how to avoid it, and how to fix
it.

In the Family View, if a spouse is added to the active person, and the
active person is a male, then a family is created with the Father/Mother
roles reversed. This is usually not visible until a child is added, but
the problem exists regardless of children being added to the family.

Work-around without a patch:

   Only add a spouse if the active person is a female.

How to check and fix your database:

   Run the "Check Integrity" tool. It will repair the problem.

Patch:

   If you downloaded the source, gunzip the attached file
   into the gramps-0.4.0/src directory, re-run "make" and
   "make install".  If you downloaded the RPM, copy the
   file into /usr/share/gramps
