RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
When number is displayed in scientific notation, the manual bit flipping (clicking on the bit array under the display area in the Programming mode) is not working. It's most probably a bug in the parser.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-calculator-3.8.1-1.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start gnome-calculator, switch to the programming mode
2. Make sure number format is not set to fixed
3. Click on the most significant bit under the display area
Actual results:
The correct number is displayed in scientific notation (e.g 9.223372037×10¹⁸), but the bits are now gray and are no longer working
Expected results:
Correct number displayed as it is and be able to continue flipping bits
Additional info:
Sorry, wrong bug. This is not a duplicate, this bug is still present in latest version of gnome-calculator

This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Despite the comment 5, I'm still able to reproduce this bug. The reproducer and actual behavior is the same as in comment 0. Tested in gnome-calculator-3.14.1-2.el7.x86_64
