Bug Description

I am using HomeBank v4.4 (on Ubuntu 11.10). I have added d=xxxx v=xx.xx to the transactions as instructed. In the UK my car odometer displays in miles but our fuel is sold in litres. These mixed imperial/metric measurements confuse the report. Is there a workaround or fix for this?

Not as far as I know

I just put the miles in as KM. The sums are still the same....

This is just a display problem.
When you select mperial units into Hb preference, distance are in mile and volume in gallon.
Maybe I should separate these 2 options.

It would be handy. We are quite weird here. We work out our fuel consumption in miles per gallon, yet we buy our fuel in litres

This is an issue for me too, in the UK we buy fuel in Litres not gallons but we work out our fuel consumption in Miles per gallon so we would need to be able to add the amount in litres but see the fuel consumption in MPG, also are the gallons in Homebank currently calculated in US gallons or UK gallons (US gallon = 3.785 litres and UK gallon = 4.545 litres).

Done.
I have separated the 2 units, so you can choose independently km/miles for the meter, and Liters/gallons for fuel.
