Description Antony 2024-11-14 16:12:13 UTC
Description:
At the moment Calc does not support the West-Africa Guinean (Conakry) currency (GNF). This is very frustrating for monetary calculations in Guinea. 

Can this support be added so that an amount for exemple 5000000 can be presented as 5.000.000 GNF.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter an amount
2. Click in the money-selector and you will find that there is'nt GNF.
3.

Actual Results:
There is no possibility to select GNF

Expected Results:
I expected a possibility to select GNF


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
In the combo-box the Guinean money GNF should be presented.

In the administrative environement, the french language is used. 
In French, the abbreviation gnf is not used, but FG (Franc Guinéen).
So, for the French-speaking Guineans we should not add GNF as an abbreviation, but FG.

Fwiw, GNF is the ISO 4217 code for the Guinean franc, no matter what it is called in French, it is always correct. The currency _symbol_ is FG. I can add a locale data stub for fr-GN to get this in.
