I don't see the boost checks in you CMake output and the error is complaining
that it can't find boost filesystem. Make sure that's installed by your package
manager, remove any existing installed gnucash so that the linker doesn't get
confused, and start from an empty build directory.

I am unable to help you further.

Gosh! Heck! Yes! Information wants to be free. There is so much stuff
out there it is hard to determine what is good information and what is
not. It is easy to determine commercial stuff because sooner or later
one will encounter a paywall, right? That is why Askleo is a great

I think that you need a third party primer on how to back up the data on
your computer. Without promoting any particular commercial products the

James, you're getting some good advice in the responses you've received
so far. May I add that it might be useful to review the Gnucash Tutorial
and Concepts Guide regarding types of files Gnucash makes/uses. This is
in Chapter 2 (Ver 4 Tutorial) called Backing Up and Recovering Data.

Also as of 5.3 you can use escape tab to cancel match and move on with

I think 5.3 shortened the list and gave priority to most recently used,
as well as added a Do Not Fill option at the top.
I understand keyboards vary, but you can use the arrow keys to navigate
the list (or keep typing to narrow it down)

James,
When your computer fails, your data will be gone unless you, by your own
volition, have made a special plan to back up your data to a safe and
proper external location. Nobody here can tell you if you made a proper
choice. That also goes for all the other data on your computer.

Sir. I am using LibreOffice. There is a backup in the program. So I use that.
