Thanks, John.

The link now works for me, and I've downloaded Gnucash-Intel-5.12-2.dmg from SourceForge and verified its checksum against what's on SourceForge.

Even though I don't have the menu truncation problem with 5.12-1, I installed 5.12-2, and it is also free of the menu truncation problem for me.

Regards,
Peter

I must have picked the wrong file when I uploaded 5.12-2 to Sourceforge. Github 
has had the right file, and now Sourceoforge does too.

Thanks, Adrien.

I had that problem with chopped-off menus in 5.11 (and I posted about it in 
this list), but it was fixed for me in 5.12-1 (and I posted about that, too), 
so I probably don't need to update to 5.12-2.

But it would probably be a good idea if the file naming was fixed so that 
people who do need the update can get it more conveniently and with more 
certainty that they're getting the right version.

Indeed, it looks like it is misnamed as that is the date John announced the 
"-2" repackage because an intended fix didn't make it in:

"There’s been a long-standing Gtk problem on Macs with both a Retina and a 
non-Retina monitor where context menus are chopped off on the non-Retina monitor. In 
spite of having a patch to fix that in place in time for the GnuCash 5.12 release I 
found to my dismay that the patch hadn’t gotten built into the release bundles. I’ve 
now built new ones and uploaded them to the usual places. The SHA256s are:

f2e174a64c2e5b3499078d2c15cfb6d041d5cc67adac2d2d5f3bf27582304d60 
Gnucash-Arm-5.12-2.dmg
8e3727cf6958a4ee37f1087edc4eebdfcc0f33405d5e581e73063c5822cff00e 
Gnucash-Intel-5.12-2.dmg"

I'm running the "-1" release from 6/28 just fine. If you aren't having issues with 
"-1" or you are not affected by that bug, I wouldn't stress over it. Both are essentially 
the same version otherwise.

Adrien

The questions about upgrading to 5.12 from 4.11 prompted me to check whether I 
was on the latest. I saw that the current Mac Intel version was 5.12-2, and I'm 
running 5.12-1.

When I clicked on the Apple macOS Intel ≥ 10.13—"High Sierra" link on the GnuCash home page, but I 
got a popup that says "The "/gnucash (stable)/5...ash-Intel-5.12-2.dmg" file could not be 
found or is not available. Please select another file."

That put me in https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnucash/files/, and when I followed the 
links there to the 5.12 files (https://sourceforge.net/ 
projects/gnucash/files/gnucash%20%28stable%29/5.12/), there was a link to 
Gnucash-Arm-5.12-2.dmg, but the only Intel "-2" file there was 
Gnucash-Intel-5.11-2.dmg.

The two files Gnucash-Intel-5.11-2.dmg and Gnucash-Arm-5.12-2.dmg had the same 
date stamp, but it's hard to tell whether the Gnucash- Intel-5.11-2.dmg that 
was there is the wrong file, or the right file with the wrong name.

Anyone got any ideas?

Peter
