Note, however that part of those improvements have come with API deprecated in
3.x and removed outright from 4.0.
Report options are implemented as vectors. The second snippet of code that you
commented out created an option, so I'd guess that the exception is from an
attempt to use that no-longer existing option.
For the previous issue about qof-book-get-slots, if you weren't calling that
where did the slots argument to (coy-info) come from?
Yup, GnuCash's API changes. The release notes accompanying each release explain
the changes and since 3.0 functions that are removed are first deprecated so
that they emit warnings, but you have to check the trace file to see the
warnings. If you don't want to keep up with GnuCash development you have two
choices: Never upgrade or don't use custom reports.
