No way.
Then it is unlikely this will get fixed until you can provide a dummy data set that triggers the issue.
As said I'll try to provide test data. But what strikes me is that your statement sounds like I'm the only one who's interested in getting this fixed.
I never said nor implied any such thing. I simply pointed out that until you can provide test data that reproduces the problem, it is unlikely this bug will be fixed. Not for lack of willingness for it to be fixed, but because *you* are the only person seeing it, and *you* are the only person with a data set that causes the issue. Thus it is up to *you* to provide such data to the project, or describe it in such a way that someone in the project can reproduce it.
Again, this is why I keep an NDA with Symas. It allows me to provide them data necessary for such reproductions. I've managed to hit all sorts of odd ball edge cases over the years that no one else could produce. What I didn't do is expect the project to be able to figure out with a bare minimum of detail what was going wrong.
