Rounding error of security quote in transaction

English Transactions
1

I have the latest Portfolio Performance 0.64.4, on a Mac.
From the all Securities -screen, I enter a new Transaction for a security: Delivery (Inbound).
The currency is EUR. I enter the quote for the stock as 1,788 (plus fees 5 eur + taxes 6 eur).
I press Save.

Now, when re-open the transaction (by right-clicking and choosing Edit) the quote has changed into 1,78799762.
This happens again if I try to change it into 1,788 - after saving and re-opening it is back in 1,78799762

The answer is pretty simple, it’s working as intended. The quote price is reverse calculated based on the total net amount divided by the applied shares.
