Transposing adds the new key not only at beginning of line but also within the score itself.
See screenshot

I use app image 3.02 on linux mint (ubuntu 18)

Can you be more precise? Do you select something first before using Tools / Transpose? What other key? The score you posted is already in E. I tried it without making a selection (which transposes everything) and transposing to D, and there were no problems using 3.0.2. I also tried transposing to Gb, and that worked too.

No, but that's unlikely to be the difference. I suspect the issue is the score you posted is one from after you already did the transposition and fixed the problem. Can you reproduce it if you download that same score, load it again, and follow my steps?

Reproduced with 3.0.4.5763
1. Use the startup Treble clef template (also happens with 'Choose instruments' and single staff, doesn't happen with SATB score template)

2. Remove the line breaks.

3. Change the time signature to one flat.

4. Transpose down with 2nd.

Spurious key signatures appear. See screenshots of these 4 steps attached.
Saving and reopening removes that key sig.

Similar issue with multimeasure rests, even with SATB template.
1. Create new SATB score
2. Set key signature
3. Write notes to some bars
4. Transpose down
5. Press 'M' for multimeasure rests:

Saving and reopening the file also fixes that one.
