I eventually succeeded in building and installing Gnucash v3.8 on Debian Buster
I installed to /usr/local because David had success with that. Not sure what I did to make it work, but it could have been any of the following: - used 'sudo' before cmake, make and make install commands; otherwise had permissions errors - I used: sudo cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ~/Downloads/gnucash-3.8b/gnucash-3.8 - after unsuccessful attempts, I deleted the build-gnucash-3.8 directory before every new attempt; when I did not, the make command seemed to think things were OK when they weren't and didn't, perhaps, instigate some of my fixes - I generally installed packages with dependency errors (if I saw them) with buster-backports (this was new for me, but see this URL: https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/ - because I had had an error on 'make' concerning aqbanking, I did a search in buster-backports for every package containing 'aqbanking' and installed them one by one with apt or apt-get before attempting another build -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
