In our case we do want quazi-stable dependencies, in particular on the stable build.

What are the parent accounts of these two securities?

If it's supposed to do more that part is clearly not working. Regards, John Ralls ___ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel

Yes, we have that for most dependencies: We check by pkg-config --atleast- version, which reliably builds the dependencies anew if we upgraded the version number. We don't clean up all of the dependency installation directories, though, which caused the unnecessary big setup package. I don't see much problem in that, though, and thus wouldn't invest extra developement time in any automatic mechanism here.

Re: sale of stock - transaction posts incorrectly
Parent accounts are 1 Asset (top-level asset-type CAD) 1.4 Investments (child account asset-type CAD) 1.4.4 (child account stock-type mutual-fund security, no currency but it is a USD priced commodity) For fun I changed the currency of "Investments" to USD, but continues to be broken. I have a variety of accounts with USD or CAD currencies. My "default currency" is CAD. There are other children of Investments that are asset accounts with names like and then stocks beneath them. They seem to all post correctly. KB On Tue, Apr 9, 2013 at 10:51 AM, Derek Atkins wrote: > Hi, > > > > What are the parent accounts of these two securities?
