Gcore DNS API not working, "$" character is removed from the account.conf

[kristoftorok]

Cannot issue certificates with Gcore DNS because the token is always invalid.
When exporting the variable, there is a "$" character that for some reason disappears from account.conf after the issue command:

Exporting the token:

After acme.sh --issue ... the contents of the account.conf:

I have tried manually editing account.conf to add the '$' character to the variable, but it is still removed after running the issue command.

Steps to reproduce

Try to issue any certificate with the Gcore DNS API

Please upgrade to the latest code and try again first. Maybe it's already fixed. acme.sh --upgrade If it's still not working, please provide the log with --debug 2, otherwise, nobody can help you.

So I tried several things.

First I tried to escape the "$" character: 123\$abc, it doesn't work,
Then I encoded the token in base64 and decoded it in use, it doesn't work either.

The problem must be here somewhere because the G-core interface says the token was never used.

[kristoftorok]

So during export, the character escaping worked and I was able to generate the certificate. The "$" character is also in account.conf now.

But it only works the first time, after the second issue command, the same problem occurs as before. The "$" character will be deleted from account.conf and the token will be invalid.
