Add layer with table in Attribute table manager fails

[pvanbosgeo]

I am trying to add a layer with attribute table to a vector layer using the Attribute Table Manager, following the steps:

• Go to to the tab 'Manage layers' and then the tab 'add layer'
• Create a table using the 'create table' option.
• add a layer with the 'insert record for each category into table' option toggled.

This results in an error window "ERROR: Layer index out of range".

Adding a layer and table with v.category and v.add.table works
