After updating packages last weekend, GnuCash is seriously broken. When I click on the date of an entry, the date changes by a few days and empty entries are also sometimes inserted. Also in the calendar when I click on a day, the adjacent is selected but a completely different date appears in the entry.

Packages I see changed that are also dependencies for GnuCash:
libxml2
python
libtool
Downgrading them did not solve the problem. |

JanErik ... just FYI, if you reply to your own posts (rather than edit the original to add further info) then they don't show in "view unanswered posts" (which is often the method people use to see who's getting help ... or not).
This python update is not so recent ...
Code: | # qlop -Cl | grep 'dev-lang/python-[2-3]' | tail -n +11
Sat Jan 18 12:37:00 2014 >>> dev-lang/python-2.7.5-r3
Sun Jan 26 13:41:00 2014 >>> dev-lang/python-3.3.3 |
... also there was a perl update within a similar timeframe ...
Code: | # qlop -Cl | grep 'dev-lang/perl-5'
Sun Dec 15 08:52:55 2013 >>> dev-lang/perl-5.16.3 |
I bring up perl as dev-perl/DateManip is also a dependency of gnucash, and this is a more likely candidate for the cause.
So, subsequent to these updates did you run 'perl-cleaner --all' and 'python-updater'?

Perl-cleaner seems to have done the trick.
But Python was updated from python-3.2.5-r3 to python-3.2.5-r4 last week, running ~arch. |

JanErik ... good, btw, I should have mentioned that running --depclean after perl-cleaner is a good idea (in my case 3 or 4 perl packages were nolonger required).

As you can see from the above I (using stable) installed python-3.3.3 on january 26th. Anyhow, the only arch that doesn't have 3.3.3 keyworded stable is mips, so you would still get 3.3.3 ...
Code: | # awk 'NR<9 {print}; /3.3/{print}' <(eshowkw dev-lang/python)
Keywords for dev-lang/python:
| | u |
| a a a p s | n |
| l m r h i m m p s p | u s | r
| p d a m p a 6 i p c 3 a x | s l | e
| h 6 r 6 p 6 8 p p 6 9 s r 8 | e o | p
| a 4 m 4 a 4 k s c 4 0 h c 6 | d t | o
-------------+-----------------------------+-------+-------
3.3.2-r2 | + + + + + + + ~ + + + + + + | # 3.3 | gentoo
[I]3.3.3 | + + + + + + + ~ + + + + + + | o | gentoo
3.3.4 | ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ | # | gentoo
3.3.5 | ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ | o | gentoo |
... the 3.2.5-r4 update was the 3.2 slot ... which you can '--depclean' after setting the 3.3 slot as the python3 interpreter ... 'eselect python set {N} --python3' (where '{N}' is the number provided by 'eselect python list').
