Hi all, I've been using GnuCash for several years now and I'd like to try some Python bindings to enter transactions programmatically.
I've browsed all the documentation I've seen on the topic. Unfortunately all my attempts stop with an ERROR <GLib> g_variant_unref: assertion 'value != NULL' failed when trying to import gnucash. Here is my system info: OS: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS OS package gnucash installed with apt: Package: gnucash Version: 1:4.8-1build2 New: yes State: installed Automatically installed: no Priority: extra Section: universe/gnome Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com> Architecture: amd64 Uncompressed Size: 32,7 M Depends: gnucash-common (= 1:4.8-1build2), guile-3.0-libs, libaqbanking44 (>= 5.99.43), libboost-filesystem1.74.0 (>= 1.74.0), libboost-locale1.74.0 (>= 1.74.0), libboost-program-options1.74.0 (>= 1.74.0), libboost-regex1.74.0-icu70, libc6 (>= 2.34), libcairo2 (>= 1.2.4), libdbi1 (>= 0.9.0), libgcc-s1 (>= 3.3.1), libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.45.3), libgtk-3-0 (>= 3.21.5), libgwengui-gtk3-79 (>= 5.4.0~), libgwenhywfar79 (>= 4.1.0), libicu70 (>= 70.1-1~), libofx7 (>= 0.9.14), libpango-1.0-0 (>= 1.18.0), libpangocairo-1.0-0 (>= 1.14.0), libpython3.10 (>= 3.10.0), libsecret-1-0 (>= 0.7), libstdc++6 (>= 11), libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37 (>= 2.30.1~), libxml2 (>= 2.7.4), zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4), perl:any, guile-3.0 | guile-2.2 | guile-2.0, libfinance-quote-perl, libwww-perl, libhtml-tree-perl, libhtml-tableextract-perl, libcrypt-ssleay-perl, libdate-manip-perl Recommends: gnucash-docs, python3-gnucash, yelp Suggests: libdbd-mysql, libdbd-pgsql, libdbd-sqlite3 Breaks: gnucash-common (< 1:2.4.8-1~) Replaces: gnucash-common (< 1:2.4.8-1~) GnuCash version shown on the UI: 4.8 (but tried also 5.X, to no avail) Other gnucash related OS packages: - gnucash-common - gnucash-docs - python3-gnucash The package python3-gnucash contains the bindings shared libraries, like: /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gnucash /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gnucash/__init__.py /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gnucash/_gnucash_core_c.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gnucash/_sw_app_utils.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gnucash/_sw_core_utils.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so ... and /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages is in the Python sys path.
