I do notice there is a Makefile in the directory, is running `make` supposed to be part of the install-from-source or install-for-dev process? The instructions just say to run setup.py but that doesn't seem to do much. I'm also not sure if I'm even following the right instructions since, as I mentioned, the document itself says it's for installing v2, and the link to instructions for installing v3 is broken (links to https://beancount.github.io/docs/installing_beancount_v3.md ) > > >> Backing out of that and just running `apt install beancount` worked fine >> though :-D >> >> >> >>> (Apologies for the little warning in every invocation.) >>> >>> On Sat, Jul 15, 2023, 07:42 Eric Altendorf <[email protected]> >>> wrote: >>> >>>> I'd like to get started with Beancount, and it wasn't clear to me if >>>> the docs have been updated recently.
