Right now I'm facing some "todo" items from the wife. Somehow she thinks they have higher priority. :-) > Note that if you're building GnuCash master that GMOCK_ROOT was deleted a > couple of weeks ago, that the minimum Googletest version is 1.8.0 and that > GTEST_ROOT should point to the outer googletest folder, the one containing > the googletest and googelmock folders. On MAINT. Actually the 3.7 tag. I presume this change will affect 3.8? or will it be 4.0? > Another note: '-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-g -O2"' is > spelled '-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo' as that gets you debug symbols > for both C and C++ instead of only C++ the way you've (and perhaps Dmitriy) > have it. There's a heck of a lot more C than C++ in GnuCash. It's also better > practice to let Cmake handle the compiler flags. Just grabbed the debian/rules file that Dmitriy had.

Thanks John. Now I have a path that should lead to a solution. --Steve -- Stephen M Butler, PMP, PSM stephen.m.butle...@gmail.com kg...@arrl.net 253-350-0166 ------------------------------------------- GnuPG Fingerprint: 8A25 9726 D439 758D D846 E5D4 282A 5477 0385 81D8 _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
