Unfortunately the locale specific tax reports we added via a hack. And the code that should load these reports explicitly checks if the locale is de_DE. If not it will go for the US tax report. This filtering is done in src/tax/us/gncmod-tax-us.c if I remember correctly. You may be able to fix this by special casing en_GB as well, though I'd rather see this mess cleaned up properly by storing locale dependent tax related stuff in separate directories/files per locale/country and load the relevant bits whenever the right locale is active. That may be more than you intended to do here though :( Geert _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
