That did the trick for me - I am now among the elite who have gnucash up
and running.  

Note that I had grabbed a libgwrapguile0 deb from gnucash.org, but it
tossed up all kinds of other dependency problems.  Your version dropped in
much more nicely.

...made it die...

2001-06-19 Thread Jonathan Corbet

OK, next problem.  Now that I have gnucash running, I of course want to
play with it.  So what better to do than to feed it my old gnucash file and
ask for a bunch of pretty pie charts?

The result: "I can't find the default fonts needed by Guppi.  In 99% of all
cases, this means that there is a problem with your installed version of
gnome-print."

Then it just dies without saving the file, and leaving its lock in place. 

I have the Debian unstable libgnomeprint libraries installed (0.29-2), and
I've not seen any other obvious problems with the GNOME setup.  Any ideas?

Thanks,

jon

Thanks for the bug report.  I have fixed the problem that caused
gnucash to fail to import this file, but I have to ask you what your
understanding of the *meaning* of this transaction is.

According to the parsing rules I understand for QIF transfer/split
lines, the "L" line says that this transaction has no Category but is
in the Class Travel:N|[Travel].  This doesn't seem right, because it
would be a very strange use of the Class field.  It seems more likely
that this is really a Transfer to the account Travel, in the Class
Travel:N ... is this correct?  

If so, MS Money is bastardizing the QIF format AGAIN  fortunately
I can change our parser to handle this pretty easily.  Please let me
know which of these interpretations is correct.

Thanks,
Bill Gribble

gnucash-1.6.0 build problem with some guile versions

2001-06-19 Thread Bill Nottingham

scm_long_long2num and its inverse are only compiled when
LONGLONGS is defined in guile-1.3.4; this isn't the default.

The attached allows gnucash to build on such a system (otherwise
it tries to link in functions that don't exist...)
