0002117: stacked lye only produces 1 potash
When buying lye from the merchants, it comes stack together in one 'item'. i.e. lye [10]. Dwarves will use the whole item, and only produce a single unit of potash.
buy lye from merchants
make potash from lye
watch only 1 bar come out
When you produce lye in your fortress, it stacks multiple single units of lye in the barrel and that works correctly, producing one potash per unit of lye. It's only when the lye is stacked into one item (as from the merchants) that the problem shows up.
No tags attached.

The same thing happened in 40d, so this is a long standing bug.

Perhaps all the stack bugs should be marked as related.

^^^ Good idea. All the ones I could find are now consolidated under 0000808.
