Screenshot of New Account Setup / Edit Account dialogs

SUMMARY
I try to setup a new cash account for EUR currency. During new account setup, I cannot select any other currency just HUF (my base currency). I also tried to create the account as HUF and change the currency by editing the account but the result is the same.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click on New Account
2. Click Next on Institution tab of KMyMoney New Account Setup (no institution selected)
3. Type "Készpénz, EUR" in Account name, change Account type to "Cash"
4. Try to select "Euro (EUR)" as Currency.

OBSERVED RESULT
The dropdown list contains only Hungarian Forint (HUF) and no other currency.

EXPECTED RESULT
I was expecting to be able to select any currency just as I can select the base currency when creating a new .kmy file.

With my own kmy file I've been using for years, I can create an account in any currency.  With a new data file (base currency either USD or EUR or HUF, I can only create an account with that base currency, no other choice.  
I'm wondering if perhaps there is something I failed to choose when creating the file, but nothing obvious to me.  Might it depend on the set of accounts/categories chosen when creating the file?

Newer versions of KMyMoney don't load all available currencies automatically into new files. One needs to manually add them before usage via Tools/Currencies/Add.
