Title:
  Calculator does not convert between binary, octal, decimal and
  hexadecimal in Raring 13.04

Status in GNOME Calculator:
  Fix Released
Status in “gnome-calculator” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I've been attempting to use the calculator in Raring but it appears to
  be broken when in Programming mode and made to convert between binary,
  octal, decimal and hexadecimal. Older versions of Ubuntu would convert
  when you type your number in a particular format, say binary, and then
  select another number format from the dropdown, say hexadecimal, and
  it would appear. In Raring this doesn't happen and it simply clears
  the screen. If you then select back to the original number format, say
  binary -> hex -> binary, then it comes up with a rubbish value, not
  the original.

  To replicate:

  1. Open calculator
  2. Switch to programming mode from the Application menu
  3. Switch to Hexadecimal input
  4. Enter 80 and press return (the number should become bold)
  5. Switch it to hexadecimal from the dropdown.

  Expected output: 10000000

  Actual ouput: The input screen is cleared

  This appears to do it for all conversions.
