Thank you Michael for the report, with the screenshots. And Aurelian for the helpful input. 'gtranslator' is the application pkg, 'translator' the SRPM. Installed gtranslator-42.0-1.mga9; already had: libsoup-i18n-2.74.3-1.mga9 libsoup3-i18n-3.4.2-1.mga9 Running it got stuck on the intitial 'assistant' screen as shown in the application attachment, so problem confirmed. Quick & easy to test. $ urpmq --requires gtranslator | grep libsoup libsoup-3.0.so.0()(64bit) Despite seeing 'libsoup3-3.4.2-1.mga9.src.rpm', Cauldron shows just 'libsoup'. But it does have both 3.4.3 & 3.4.4. So assigning this to update M9 libsoup. And hope that fixes the issue.

I think we should go with latest libsoup 3.4.x series with 3.4.5!

That should work to avoid hard crashes and freezes of gnome-calculator/gtranslator. Upgrading the calculator to fix currency conversion may not work as it isn't currently working on Cauldron either. Furthermore, the version claiming to fix it, 46.alpha, needs GTK4 >= 4.11.4, currently 4.10.3 on Mageia 9.
On a stable release we can't upgrade gnome nor gtk4 to a major new release, we just can patching affected packages if possible!
