agreed :-)

Ok, I'll go along with this, but starting gnucash results in the
following:
truss -o /tmp/out gnucash.motif
gnucash: bootstrap file is /usr/local/share/gnucash/scm/bootstrap.scm
gnucash: [W] "failure loading ""/usr/local/share/gnucash/scm/prefs.scm"
gnucash: [W] "failure loading
""/usr/local/share/gnucash/scm/text-export.scm"
ERROR: Unbound variable: gnc:*config-dir*
and then it dies.
the last few lines of /tmp/out are:
access("//.gnucash/scm/analytical-qifs.scm", 0) Err#2 ENOENT
access("/usr/local/share/gnucash/scm/analytical-qifs.scm", 0) Err#2
ENOENT
access("//.gnucash/scm/gc-import-qifs.scm", 0) Err#2 ENOENT
access("/usr/local/share/gnucash/scm/gc-import-qifs.scm", 0) Err#2
ENOENT
read(4, 0x081A6FC0, 8192) = 0
close(4) = 0
write(2, " E R R O R", 5) = 5
write(2, " : ", 2) = 2
write(2, " U n b o u n d v a r i".., 18) = 18
write(2, " g n c : * c o n f i g -".., 16) = 16
I can't find analytical-qifs.scm or gc-import-qifs.scm anywhere on
my disk or any of the internet search engines. Any idea where I can
get a copy of either of these two? At this point with 1.20 everything
worked fine. :-(
