--- Begin Message ---Package: gnucash Version: 1.9.6-3 Severity: critical Justification: causes serious data loss Hi, I just noticed that the new gnucash version seems to corrupt imported data sets. I use the package with [EMAIL PROTECTED] set, and the following procedure reproducably loses a lot of transactions from my accounts: - Open old gnucash file for import - Accept standard choices for import wizard (At this point, it's possible to save, exit, reload, edit etc without trouble) - Import a generated QIF file (At this point, everything looks fine - as far as I can tell, all transactions are processed correctly and all balances are sane) - Save, Close, Reload: Suddenly, lots of transactions have simply disappeared. I haven't been able to figure out what the criteria that cause transactions to disappear are, but here's some additional random observations: - It only appears to happen with accounts that have non-ASCII names. Unfortunately, the default new account scheme for gnucash with a german locale uses "Barvermögen" as the category that among others includes cash and bank accounts, so this is probably not an uncommon setup. Renaming the account to "Barvermoegen" prior to importing makes the bug go away. - The initial problem seems to be in reading the data file, not in the writing process. I conclude this from a diff between the (gunzipped) data files before and after the QIF import - the only differences there are the transactions that were added through the import. However, after saving the misread file once in gnucash, the "invisible" transactions are also gone from the file, so this doesn't seem to mitigate the seriousness of the bug. ciao, Thomas -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-rc1 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages gnucash depends on: ii g-wrap 1.9.6-3 scripting interface generator for ii gnucash-common 1.9.6-3 A personal finance tracking progra ii guile-1.6-libs 1.6.8-3 Main Guile libraries ii guile-1.6-slib 1.6.8-3 Guile SLIB support ii guile-g-wrap 1.9.6-3 scripting interface generator for ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.11.4-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libaudiofile0 0.2.6-6 Open-source version of SGI's audio ii libavahi-client3 0.6.10-1 Avahi client library ii libavahi-common3 0.6.10-1 Avahi common library ii libavahi-glib1 0.6.10-1 Avahi glib integration library ii libbonobo2-0 2.14.0-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.14.0-2 The Bonobo UI library ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.3-2 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.3.6-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.0.4-2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libdate-manip-perl 5.44-2 a perl library for manipulating da ii libdbus-1-2 0.61-6 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libesd-alsa0 [libesd0] 0.2.36-3 Enlightened Sound Daemon (ALSA) - ii libffi4 4.1.0-4 Foreign Function Interface library ii libfinance-quote-perl 1.11-0.1 Perl module for retrieving stock q ii libfontconfig1 2.3.2-5.1 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.2.1-2 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgail-common 1.8.11-2 GNOME Accessibility Implementation ii libgail17 1.8.11-2 GNOME Accessibility Implementation ii libgconf2-4 2.14.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libgcrypt11 1.2.2-1 LGPL Crypto library - runtime libr ii libglade2-0 1:2.5.1-2 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.10.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-keyring0 0.4.9-1 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.14.1-2 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.14.0-2 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeprint2.2-0 2.12.1-3 The GNOME 2.2 print architecture - ii libgnomeprintui2.2-0 2.12.1-3 GNOME 2.2 print architecture User ii libgnomeui-0 2.14.1-1 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 2.14.2-1 GNOME virtual file-system (runtime ii libgnutls13 1.3.5-1.1 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libgpg-error0 1.2-1 library for common error values an ii libgsf-1-114 1.14.1-1 Structured File Library - runtime ii libgsf-gnome-1-114 1.14.1-1 Structured File Library - runtime ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.18-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libgtkhtml3.8-15 3.10.1-1 HTML rendering/editing library - r ii libguile-ltdl-1 1.6.8-3 Guile's patched version of libtool ii libgwrap-runtime0 1.9.6-3 scripting interface generator for ii libice6 1:1.0.0-3 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-13 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libltdl3 1.5.22-4 A system independent dlopen wrappe ii libofx2c2a 1:0.8.0-12 library to support Open Financial ii liborbit2 1:2.14.0-1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.12.3-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-5.1 PNG library - runtime ii libpopt0 1.7-5 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libqthreads-12 1.6.8-3 QuickThreads library for Guile ii libsm6 1:1.0.0-4 X11 Session Management library ii libtasn1-2 1:0.2.17-2 Manage ASN.1 structures (runtime) ii libx11-6 2:1.0.0-6 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1.1.5.2-5 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.0-4 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:3.0.1.2-4 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxi6 1:1.0.0-5 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.1-4 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxml2 2.6.24.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii libxrandr2 2:1.1.0.2-4 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.0.2-4 X Rendering Extension client libra ii psfontmgr 0.11.8-0.1 PostScript font manager -- part of ii slib 3a3-2 Portable Scheme library ii x-ttcidfont-conf 22 Configure TrueType and CID fonts f ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-11 compression library - runtime gnucash recommends no packages. -- no debconf information
