Jean,
You only need to reconfigure and rebuild gnucash. At this point all
dependencies are the same between master and maint. I do that in a jhbuild
shell because as I said elsewhere I build from the terminal prompt, so I want
to make an edit and then run ninja && ninja check (or more often ninja
test-target && bin/test-program, TDD and all that).
There's one cmake change between the two branches. In maint you set
-DGTEST_ROOT=path/to/googletest/googletest
-DGMOCK_ROOT=path/to/googletest/googlemock and in master you set only
-DGTEST_ROOT=path/to/googletest. It works best to have a separate build
directory and rm -rf * && cmake ... to switch branches.
One other thing, make sure you uninstall GnuCash beforehand, the maint and
master libraries are incompatible and Guile will dlopen the installed libraries
in preference to the ones in the build directory. ninja uninstall doesn't
always work, so if it fails try xargs rm < install_manifest.txt. If *that*
fails the `rm -r $PREFIX/lib/libgnc* $PREFIX/lib/gnucash` should be sufficient.
