Greetings, The error I am getting is
"It looks like you are NOT building from Subversion but I cannot find swig-runtime.h. Check your PATH and make sure we can find svnversion in your PATH! Either that or contact gnucash-devel@gnucash.org because the tarball you downloaded is broken." Can you tranlate the above paragraph for me, so that I can at least begin to know where I want to try re-compiling or looking for a missing file, etc? Any ideas? Thanks. Paul J Crown These are my gnucash build steps for Win32 binary on February 26, 2007. I had previously installed gnucash using gnucash-2.0.99-svn-r15480-setup.exe, however, I was getting a report error when printing invoices because I have jobs associated with each invoice. This bug was reported at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=410407 and I saw that it was fixed in r15640. So, I figured I need to compile my own if I wanted to print soon. I read http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Windows#Q:_Where_is_the_binary.3F and http://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2006-September/018588.html and http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/README and http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Windows/Old_Notes I'm on a HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop. It has an AMD Turion 64 X2 Mobile processor running 1.81GHz and 2GB of RAM. The operating system is WinXP Home 2002 SP2. I used Firefox 2.0.0.1{1} and extension WindizUpdate 0.7{2} to update WinXP from http://windowsupdate.62nds.com/ as of February 24, 2007. {1} http://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-2.0.0.2&os=win&lang=en-US or http://downloads.sourceforge.net/portablefirefox/Firefox_Portable_2.0.0.1_en-us.paf.exe {2} http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/extensions/go_to_windizupdate/go_to_windizupdate-0.7-fx.xpi On drive P: I create the directories from cmd box (i.e. Start-> Run-> cmd): P: mkdir \Develop mkdir \Develop\gnucash mkdir \Develop\gnucash\packaging mkdir \Develop\gnucash\downloads mkdir \Develop\gnucash\msys mkdir \Develop\gnucash\mingw With Firefox, I went to http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/ I downloaded each of the following into P:\Develop\gnucash\packaging. I assume that the files in this directory may change, but here is what existed today. http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/README http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/create_cross_mingw.sh http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/custom.sh http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/dist.sh http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/exetype.pl http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/functions http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/gnucash.iss.in http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/goffice-0.3.0-patch.diff http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/goffice-0.3.2-patch.diff http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/install.sh http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/libofx-0.8.3-patch.diff http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/opensp-1.5.2-patch.diff http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/pi.sh http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/reset.sh I renamed README and functions because when I downloaded them they ended up with .html extensions. So from my cmd box, cd \Develop\gnucash\packaging ren README.html README ren functions.html functions Next, I opened and edited custom.sh in Wordpad. On the fifth line, I changed c:\\soft to read p:\\Develop\\gnucash and saved custom.sh back in P:\Develop\gnucash\packaging Now, I downloaded MSYS{3}, wget{4}, and Qt{5} and saved each in P:\Develop\gnucash\downloads {3} http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/MSYS-1.0.10.exe?download {4} http://prdownloads.sf.net/mingw/wget-1.9.1-mingwPORT.tar.bz2?download {5} ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/source/qt-win-opensource-4.2.2-mingw.exe Next, I execute (by double-click) qt-win-opensource-4.2.2-mingw.exe. It asks for an install directory and I enter P:\Develop\gnucash\Qt\4.2.2 Then I get a warning telling me that it can't find MingW install and wants to know what directory to use. I enter P:\Develop\gnucash\mingw and let the install finish. (I know that Mingw is not there now, but it will be). I execute (by double-click) MSYS-1.0.10.exe. It asks me where to install and I enter P:\Develop\gnucash\msys. At somepoint it shows which tools are to be installed and the default it shows is just 'gcc'. I also click on 'g++' and make sure that 'Make' is not checked, then just let the install finish. After installing, a cmd box asks if I want to normalize, and I answered N. At this point, I close the various windows open on my computer and see the 'M' icon on my desktop. I execute MSYS (by double-clicking this icon) and get a yellow window with my computer name and then a '$'. At this $ prompt, I enter export QTDIR=/p/Develop/gnucash/Qt/4.2.2 export aqbanking_with_qt=yes /p/Develop/gnucash/packaging/install.sh The compile takes hours, and I run into a couple of failures. One failure shows it trying repeatedly to find a website that does not respond. I discover my router to have had a problem and reboot it. I end up rebooting my laptop and restarting MSYS and at the prompt enter again: export QTDIR=/p/Develop/gnucash/Qt/4.2.2 export aqbanking_with_qt=yes /p/Develop/gnucash/packaging/install.sh This time it skips over sections that are already complete. My next error was due to the firewall on my computer. I use Outpost Firewall Pro ver. 4.0.971.7030 (584){6} and have it set to ask permission whenever a new program makes a DNS request or calls another application. I had been watching and authorizing the dozens of apps that make a request during this compile, but I was too slow to respond to one of them and the compile errored with the message "giving up". I just restarted with: /p/Develop/gnucash/packaging/install.sh {6} http://www.agnitum.com/download/OutpostProInstall64.exe or http://www.agnitum.com/download/OutpostProInstall.exe And again, it skips over sections that were already complete. As I approach the end, I run into an error: ############################################################ ### svn update in p:\Develop\gnucash\gnucash\repos ############################################################ At revision 15670. ############################################################ ### GnuCash ############################################################ Creating ./po/POTFILES.in ...
