It means to pass --enable-hbci to configure when building with autotools. The cmake equivalent of --enable-hbci is -DWITH_AQBANKING, and it's on by default, so no, you don't need to do that for 3.0. Tools-->Online Banking Setup opens the online banking setup assistant. It has two buttons, Cancel and Next, whose location varies depending on I'm not sure what: They're across the top on Debian 9 and in the lower right corner on MacOS. "Cancel" always dismisses the assistant. Is that what's not working for you, or is it after advancing to the second screen and clicking "Start AQBanking Setup" that you get the window that won't close?
