If it works with a simple edit, then why don't you use that one to edit individual values. I checked and version 3.1.4 had already the same problem, so it was not newly introduced. I would have to invest a couple of hours to fix this issue correcly, which I simply don't have right now.

I checked and found that the bug which removed the main text was there since the beginning, but it's only triggered if you switch elog to French, it doesn't happen in the English version. I changed a bit the text processing so now it should work also in the French version.

I also changed the version number which is shown at the bottom to 3.1.5.

A new version 3.1.5 of elog has been released with all accumulated fixes over the past actually few years. I made a tar file, a RPM, but I could not compile yet a windows version.

Hello,

I  tried to install Elog 3.1.4 from rpm on Oracle Linux 9 with command:

sudo dnf localinstall elog-3.1.4-3.el7.x86_64.rpm

But I got error:

Last metadata expiration check: 0:08:06 ago on Thu 02 Feb 2023 10:35:13 CET.
Error:
 Problem: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides libssl.so.10()(64bit) needed by elog-3.1.4-3.el7.x86_64
  - nothing provides libssl.so.10(libssl.so.10)(64bit) needed by elog-3.1.4-3.el7.x86_64
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

Using dnf I installed libssl.so.11 (cannot find version 10) and it doesn't help. So my question is: can I use one of proposes by dnf solution as:

1. --skip-broken
2. --nobest

Does Elog will work stabilityy after that?

Best Regards
