Description

due to this question: http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/137183/qgis-modeler-flexibility-and-errors
I checked if "Select by attribute" via processing would work, but

1) produce as output the entire input file
2) does not select the proper record

To test I loaded alaska.shp, run "Select to attribute" set "Selection attribute" = cat, Operator = and Value = 1 (or "1" is the same)

seems that on 2.4 worked properly, so it could be a regression of QGIS or Processing
