Thank you so much, Robert. To answer your questions: I installed ledgersmb from the jessie main repo from Mint 18.
I've been playing a bit more and hopefully have more info to provide you here. I attempted to follow the instructions on: http://ledgersmb.org/faq/latex but I didn't have a Path.pm file in the Perl5/drivers folder, so carrying on, I created a sales order and tried to view it on the screen and got this error (to be expected according to the page): [client 127.0.0.1:41830] AH01215: 2016/08/16 13:16:00 - ERROR - lsmb_legacy::_error old-handler.pl (104) -- 'latex error - latex exited with errors:: /usr/share/ledgersmb/oe.pl, referer: http://localhost/ledgersmb/oe.pl?action=edit&id=1 [Tue Aug 16 13:16:00.403936 2016] [cgi:error] [pid 29391] [client 127.0.0.1:41830] AH01215: ! : /usr/share/ledgersmb/oe.pl, referer: http://localhost/ledgersmb/oe.pl?action=edit&id=1 [Tue Aug 16 13:16:00.403951 2016] [cgi:error] [pid 29391] [client 127.0.0.1:41830] AH01215: l.26 \\RequireXeTeX: /usr/share/ledgersmb/oe.pl, referer: http://localhost/ledgersmb/oe.pl?action=edit&id=1 [Tue Aug 16 13:16:00.403968 2016] [cgi:error] [pid 29391] [client 127.0.0.1:41830] AH01215: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!: /usr/share/ledgersmb/oe.pl, referer: http://localhost/ledgersmb/oe.pl?action=edit&id=1 [Tue Aug 16 13:16:00.403972 2016] [cgi:error] [pid 29391] [client 127.0.0.1:41830] AH01215: !: /usr/share/ledgersmb/oe.pl, referer: http://localhost/ledgersmb/oe.pl?action=edit&id=1 [Tue Aug 16 13:16:00.403987 2016] [cgi:error] [pid 29391] [client 127.0.0.1:41830] AH01215: !
