Sorry - I didn’t explain that I used ACLs (chmod -a) to completely block access for my build user “gnucash” from accessing /opt/homebrew and then started from the beginning of setting up a build environment as the gnucash user. During this rebuild, I ran into an error while building libxmlsec1, which depends on gnutls. I traced that failure to -lgcrypt missing from the link line.
I was planning to document the full procedure on the wiki in case it helps someone else trying to start from scratch on Mac OS. When creating a new file, is the last step to pick a file location with GtkFileChooser? That would explain why I’m crashing on trying to create a new GnuCash file because I am running from the build directory. Do I need to create a bundle for GtkFileChooser to not crash?
