@Ben

This "Use Alpine" maybe meant as joke - in case it was not - How do you run
Alpine on Android?

Ben,

   Turns out that the SBo has very outdated versions of libwebp and
webkitgtk. I just downloaded the newest versions and will rebuild/upgrade
those libraries then try gnucash again. I think this will make a difference.

Firefox 53.0 (64-bit) Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0

Tools > Web Developer > Page Source Ctrl+U
(near the bottom of the list)

Looks like they decided that the unwashed don't need to see the page 
source and only web developers look for it.

   All other pages load without problems. Why this one didn't shall remain a
mystery. I was sent the direct link to the bug report page and that worked
fine.

   Perhaps I'll need to re-compile opera and chromium to get them working
again. Very strange.

Using Firefox 55.0.2 on Xubuntu 14.04, up to date, I went to the main
page at the link above, then clicked on Bug Reports and the page loaded
quickly and perfectly. The Firefox Help About says that I have "Mozilla
Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0." The URL for the Bug Reports page is
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Bugzilla

I wanted to see the html source and send it to you off-list.  I could
swear that there is a way to view the source in Firefox, but now I
can't find the button.

However, I did find Tools > Page Info that gives me a popup with
various tabs, including one labeled Security, which says "Connection
Encrypted (TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256, 128 bit keys, TLS
1.2." It also says that the site is storing cookies on my computer. The
General tab says "Modified: July 27, 2017, 6:48:37 PM PDT." There is a
lot more under the other tabs but you can't select and copy most of it
to paste here, and I'm not sure which of it might be helpful.

I didn't try any other browsers.

[Ben Koenig]

I have not attempted this build yet, however

The report-gnome.go file appears to be a build file, not a system file.
You are encountering a processing error for the .scm file, which results in
a build file not getting generated. Later on the build system goes back and
cannot find file that it failed to generate. This is why your google search
returns nothing, its a temp build file.


Which version of guile is installed, and compare to packages.slackware.com.

Tom,

   First I need to figure out what search path is being used.

   My current approach is building 2.6.17 on the 32-bit Dell Latitude 2100,
re-directing stdout and stderr to the build.log file. Then I'll run 'diff
-y  ' and see where they differ. This should tell me
what's different between a system that upgraded from 14.1 to 14.2 and a
system with 14.2 installed on a new disk.

Thanks,

Rich

[PLUG] Issues with web browsers

[Rich Shepard]

   All this on Slackware-14.2/32-bit.

   I need to understand what the system is telling me. Firefox loads pages
OK, but when I try to use the 'bug reports' link on www.gnucash.org it tells
me it cannot load that page. One of the gnucash devs has no problems loading
it.

   Opera crashes when I try to load it.

   Chromium (the very latest version) loads, but when I try to access
www.gnucash.com it crashes with bus errors. Sometimes, when I invoke
chromium it shows me a page "Aw, snap. Something went wrong displaying this
page."

   No other web site gives me any issues using firefox.

   I welcome your insights and thoughts on what might be going on.
