when will gnucash be updated?

Juhu, after a long talk with a guy from #gnucash (thanks to warlord, again!) I now know what is going wrong.
Due to the library stuff a "make prefix=... install" or a "make DESTDIR=... install" wont work that easy, so I am not able to finish Lardes ebuild.
Using "./configure --prefix=..." on the other hand will work, but since I don't know the deeper stuff of emerge, I don't know, if this can be fulfilled in an ebuild.

So I did a manual install.
I had big problems doing a

I was able to get a working ebuild for gnucash 1.8.1 based on the ebuild here: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14438

I merged Larde's changes to include openhbci, and my own changes to include OFX. Here is the working ebuild:

Ok... now for the ebuilds to get OFX support

Thank you very much.

warlord from #gnucash told me to go with LIBRARY_PATH, but I didn't new, that it is that easy ;-)

take care, have fun

Ok... one last thing that needed doing... getting the Online Help system for gnucash working. As per "warlord" in #gnucash (thanks, nevertheless, for pointing me there!) a separate package needs to be installed. Thus, here is the ebuild.

Hello

thank you very much for the great ebuild. But are your sure that hbci is included in your ebuild? Or how can i enable it? And where do i config hbci for my bank ?

Thank you

Bastian

You have to add "hbci" to you USE-Flags, and then you have to take the openhbci.ebuild out of lardes .tar.gz (his first try of the gnucash.ebuild).

To really use it, you have to ask you bank for further details. Some banks allow hbci only with a chipcard (then you need a chipcardreader and libchipcard, too).

Check
http://www.hbci.de
http://www.libchipcard.de (btw. there is a libchipcard ebuild!)

Or did I miss you?

Hello

i see, i'm not very firm with gentoo. So i tryed to set the use "hbci" in the ebuild. But now i set the hbci in make.conf and it looks good.

Thank you

I get an error when i try to compile g-wrap 1.3.4 -- i think it is because i am using gcc 3.x -- does anyone have a similar problem and a resolution?

choenig · Posted: Sun Feb 23, 2003 9:18 am Post subject:

I think most of us use gcc 3.x. Maybe it is due to your c(xx)flags.

Maybe you better would post your compile error, then we can have a look at it...

take care, have fun

I've been away for a while. Hooray to HotShotDJ for creating an .ebuild that's working for everyone! :-)

Yours,
Larde.

This is the last few lines of output I get when I try to upgrade g-wrap in order to install the latest gnucash. I am using gcc 3.x on a Gentoo 1.4-RC2 system.

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -O2 -g -Wall -Werror -I/usr/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include /glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include -march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -I /usr/include -MT g-wrap-wct.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/g-wrap-wct.Tpo -c g-wrap-wct.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/g-wrap-wct.lo

I see the error seems to be an incorrect flag passed to gcc 3.x but is there a way to fix this without wading through all the makefiles and then manually compiling?

Larde: I also try to write an ebuild for gnucash-1.8.2. At least, you should read this bug report if you too want. We could together write this ebuild but there is some problems with g-wrap as you can see above

No ideas ?

Regards,
Sébastien.

Solution here.
(The corrected ebuild, changelog and digest).

You will also need to update guile to 1.6.3 (or more than 1.4.1 but 1.5.4 has a bug). Hum ... gnucash seems to compile now.

Regards,
Sébastien.

Conclusion: if you want to be able to compile gnucash-1.8.2, you could for example need:
- guile-1.6.3.tar.gz
- g-wrap-1.3.4.tar.gz
- gnucash-1.8.2.tar.gz
and the corresponding ebuilds found in the bug reports in my last post. You should be able to stick all the pieces together to finally get this error:

Here it is !

Ok now guys, listen to me: there is a working gnucash ebuild that you can find here . If you want to be able to read ofx files, you will also need libofx-0.6.2 and this ebuild and then just add --enable-ofx after econf in the gnucash-ebuild.

Thx to Stephen Boulet who made the gnucash ebuild and Olivier Crete for the libofx ebuild.

Regards,
Sébastien.

Sébastien:

I have a working ebuild for gnucash 1.8.2 that uses USE="ofx" and USE="hbci" to enable OFX and hbci respectively. No need for individuals to edit the ebuild file to get support for these protocols. Of course, it relies upon other packages (ebuilds previously posted). I haven't experienced problems with g-wrap, but it looks like that may have been worked out already.

Cool, thx HotShotDJ
