Reverted to tag 2.6.3 and it is ok. It would be interesting to test with brancht 'maint' as well. The changes for libdbi 0.9.0 have been committed after 2.6.3 has been released.
Also I'm confused here: are both versions (HEAD and 2.6.3) linking against libdbi 0.9 ? If so does the 2.6.3 build generate deprecation warnings for some libdbi functions ? > I had some problems > getting it to build after the checkout of 2.6.3, though.

So the steps would become: sudo make uninstall (to remove your installed version of gnucash) make maintainer-clean (wipes everything that was generated) git checkout 2.6.3 (or git checkout maint) ./autogen.sh ./configure ... make sudo make install Because I switch a lot between maint and master, I have chosen to clone the gnucash repository twice. One close is permanently checked out to maint the other to master. And in addition I'm building in separate build directories instead of in the source directories. That makes it easier to start from scratch (just delete the build directory). This is pretty easy to do: create your build directory (wherever you like) cd <build-directory> <path-to-gnucash-configure>/configure ... make ...
