[GNC] Unable to enter data in "Description" field of a Transaction

[AgedLace]

Hello,

Recently, I've been having a problem entering Descriptions for my 
transactions.

At first, I could only enter 3 characters, then it would lock up.

Now I can only enter 1.

All other fields seem to be working just fine.  The only field I'm 
having difficulties with is the Description.

I'm using Manjaro an Arch Linux based operating system. The version in 
the official repository is 5.3-1.

I have tried uninstalling / reinstalling with no success.

I have spent a great deal of time searching for a way to fix this issue, 
but have not even seen someone else having the same issue.

Thank you.
