Re: debian stretch upgrade has made gnucash unworkable

2017-08-19 Thread tjoen
Problem is that Guile-2.0 files conflicts with the newer Guile-2.2
Debian shoud have created a tiny Guile-2.0 package containing only
/usr/lib64/guile/2.0/*
/usr/lib64/libguile-2.0.so.22
/usr/lib64/libguile-2.0.so.22.8.1
/usr/lib64/libguilereadline-v-18.so.18
/usr/lib64/libguilereadline-v-18.so.18.0.0
/usr/share/guile/2.0/*

OP can compile and install it in /usr/local/

Retrieving online quotes

2017-08-19 Thread Peter Ling
Hi there,

I’ve installed GNUCash 2.6.17 and wish to retrieve online stock quotes on a mac.

I’ve followed 5.4.1.1. Steps to enable On-line price updating

When I type “perldoc Finance::Quote into the terminal window it returns 
No documentation found for "Finance::Quote”

According to the docs this means that it is not installed, however it later 
says that if you have installed from the installer then Finance::Quote is 
already installed.

Typing gnc-fq-dump returns command not found.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks
Peter

Peter,

It isn't entirely clear what you have done thus far to install Finance::Quote, 
which is what Gnucash uses to retrieve quotes. Unfortunately, the help document 
doesn't actually provide step by step instructions on installation (an 
oversight, to be sure). However, the wiki has pretty detailed instructions at 
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_How_do_I_install_Finance::Quote_on_a_Mac.3F
 

Take a look at that page and see if it helps you, and let us know where in that 
process you get hung up.

Manually adding prices to securities

2017-08-19 Thread William Kupersanin
I seem to be unable to manually add prices to securities using the price
editor. When I try, I am able to go into the dialog box and enter a price
corresponding to a date, but if I hit apply or okay, the data is never
actually stored and reflected in the list of security prices. Security
prices that are either due to transactions or due to online updates do
persist, but I want to add some historical data manually.

If it makes a difference, this is GnuCash 2.6.12 with the file system
back-end. (stock ubuntu package)

Thanks,
--Willie

You need to use the full path to gnc-fq-dump because application bundles are 
not in the path. If you put Gnucash.app in /Applications the path will be
/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-dump.

You can run /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-update to 
install or update the perl modules that GnuCash requires for online quotes.

Regards,
John Ralls
