Thanks John and all others involved in the development and maintenance
of GnuCash.
It is a great application and has made keeping accounts for a small
not-for-profit charity a breeze and enabled them to get away from pen &
paper.
Wishing all those who celebrate it a Merry Christmas, and Happy
Holidays to those that don't, and a fantastic 2025 for all!
Cheers

Bug 799433 - Right-click issue in import window

cted row.

ion editor open

ount not the jumped to account

nese.

enable grouping and subtotals for Num field
Bug 799454 - Numeric value in exported CSV transactions

By which the reporter means that the value in every cell except Num is selec
ted on cell entry.
Bug 799458 - Crash attempting to edit a scheduled transaction
Bug 799470 - Crash when clicking on Schedule Transaction Editor
The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:
Tabs now close when you middle-click on them.
The SX editor's saved duration and height are stored differently in preferen
ces so values previously saved will be lost when switching between versions 5.9
and 5.10 (and later). We regret the inconvenience but the new scheme better matc
hes GnuCash's use of the preferences.
Allow 0 cash amount when using the Stock Assistant to create a sell transact
ion. This might happen if the commission and fees exactly balance the proceeds o
f the sale.
Enforce searching for our gsettings schema files first where they were insta
lled. This was not done when the installation prefix was /usr or /usr/local whic
h could potentially cause gnucash to find other schema files first.
Set tooltip text on the outer tab container again so that it can be updated
by main_window_update_page_long_name.
Tooltips on chart reports now appear any time the pointer hovers in the char
t area and reflect the nearest point. Previously the pointer had to be very clos
e to a point.
Updated the quote source lists in the Security Editor dialog to reflect the
current Finance::Quote version.
Display a warning dialog when a transaction is unbalanceable because the use
r has set a minimum fraction on an account smaller than the security's fraction
in a book using trading accounts.
Deleting a commodity will fail if there are accounts denominated in the comm
odity. When reporting the error to the user list those accounts.
Correct in Tips of the Day the IRC network where GnuCash's channel can be fo
und.
Ensure Python bindings Session constructor loads the session's data.
Fix compile failures with Boost 1.87. This requires the minimum Boost versio
n to be 1.67, removing the option for distributions to patch older versions.
Prevent deleting an account with an open register from logging spurious erro
rs
Check that GUI refreshes are not suspended before calling gnc_gui_refresh_al
l.
Unify wording for alphavazntage tooltips.
New script to update translator-credits.
See POD for usage instructions.
Document cmake 3.14 requirement set a year ago.
New and Updated Translations: Chinese (Simplified Han script), Chinese (Traditio
nal Han script), Croatian, Dutch, English (Australia), English (New Zealand), En
glish (United Kingdom), French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Japanese, Portuguese,

German AQBanking Users:
The AQBanking author is still working to get his updated PIN/TAN code finalized
so the Flatpak, macOS, and Windows bundles of this release contain the last stab
le version, 6.5.4. The GnuCash nightly builds have beta releases with the new im
plementation, so consider using one of those if the stable AQBanking doesn't wor
k for you.
