A while back I followed the instructions given in this list to build
GnuCash as a Mac OS X-Native Quartz application rather than an X11
application. This required configuring the build a certain way and
then applying a patch that fixed a build problem that occured with the
unpatched MacPorts source.
I'd like to update my MacPorts installation to the latest versions of
everything. Do I need to be concerned about this clobbering my Quartz
GnuCash, or about those Quartz build settings interfering with the
build of
the latest MacPorts code?
I have come to depend on GnuCash heavily for managing both my business
and personal finances, so I don't want to risk screwing it up.
An alternative is that there is now a Drag-n-Drop installer of
OS X GnuCash available at http://www.gnucash.org/ Would I be better
off to use that rather than the MacPorts version? If so, then I'll
uninstall the GnuCash I have now before I update MacPorts.
Did you create a private repository for your macports/guncash portfile?
If so then I doubt you'll have any issues unless something gnucash
depends on gets update to a version that gnucash can't work with.
Others may know but I don't so I'll ask. What Quartz build settings
did you alter?
