Sounds like your Ubuntu installation is too old - a dist-upgrade sounds likely. What version of Ubuntu are you running? I'm not completely familiar with Ubuntu versions but if you are on the equivalent of Debian stable you would have to upgrade. AFAICT, you need to be running Dapper - whichever version of Ubuntu that is. > I wonder if i shall just try an dust-upgrade to Dapper Drake or > whatever it is called (Ubuntu 6.04) To use 1.9.6-3 it looks like you do need to be running Dapper. Breezy (which I think is Ubuntu 5.10) is insufficient. Isn't Dapper a bit like Debian unstable - a rolling distribution that's always the latest packages? Sounds like Breezy is a fixed point in the Dapper process which means it won't upgrade easily beyond that point without becoming Dapper in all but name. Although gnucash has a target platform much older than Breezy, unfortunately the g-wrap dependency in Breezy is broken as far as gnucash is concerned (and the previous version won't work with gcc4). The fix was only made AFTER Breezy was created, hence your problem. Move to Dapper. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
