In that case, John's suggestion to re-build might be your best bet. Another option to stay current ahead of the default distro version is to use the Flatpak, but that has its caveats too. See the wiki for more details. Regards, Adrien On 11/28/20 4:35 PM, Derek Zehr wrote: Thank you

Derek, I have built GnuCash 4.2 on Linux Mint which is Ubuntu 20.04 based. I had a few minor issues sorting out the dependencies (https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Dependencies) which I think I resolved by loading specific versions from the Ubuntu launchpad site or built from source if I couldn't

Laurel, If you haven't tried it already, Geert's strategy of deleting the complete folder C:/Program Files(X86)/guncash before doing a reinstall from a fresh download from the GnuCash website (with the antivirus turned off while doing the download and install) is going to be worth a try as that

What's the best way to get this version 4.1 off that I built? Dependency issues with libboost are making it seem impossible to uninstall it. I still have the build directory, and ran "sudo ninja uninstall." Before I trace down and try to fix the errors it's giving me, can you tell me if

Thank you everybody. I did build it on Ubuntu 18. I thought that was implied by the fact I was running version 4.1, since the package managers don't have that new of a version. Sorry. I will probably just install from the distribution, if Adrien says he couldn't built it on 20.04. Will I

This sounds like you're trying to run a GnuCash built for Ubuntu 18.04 on 20.04. Boost (and ICU) version their libraries so that you have to at least re-link (and often recompile) anything that depends on them when you upgrade. Apt should have taken care of pulling in the correspondingly linked

When building, you install the dependencies yourself. the Boost libraries don't want to install at version 1.65 on 20.04. Apt complains it can't do it. But yes, on a regular install, that should the trick. Regards, Adrien On 11/28/20 1:29 PM, Ove Grunnér wrote: I would try to uninstall and

Apple did change the perl version from 5.18.4 to 5.28.2, so just the normal version path info changed. And I think Apple has been moving things around to further lock down system locations, so that may have impacted standard perl attempts to find previously installed perl modules. -- Dave
