Re: [GNC] What is earliest version of Ubuntu for which building GnuCASH 3.0 is possible?

OK, so I have been using GnuCash 3.0 on Ubuntu for a couple weeks now and am broadly satisfied with it. I built it and it works. However, there's one thing I cannot figure out. Where is the "launcher" for GNUCash and/or how do I build that. As of now I have to navigate to the bin subdirectory

Re: [GNC] What is earliest version of Ubuntu for which building GnuCASH 3.0 is possible?

It's tied to unstable because that's been the primary working branch for the last 6 months or so. The testing period branches have been beaten to death here and in devel over the last several months, if you're really interested search the list archives or read https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Git#B

Re: [GNC] What is earliest version of Ubuntu for which building GnuCASH 3.0 is possible?

Ok, I suppose. I would have EXPECTED a release to be built from the master branch. I don't understand why git clone https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash.git is tied to the unstable branch - but if it is, then it makes sense that you would want to reverse merge it down. Why do you do it th

Re: [GNC] What is earliest version of Ubuntu for which building GnuCASH 3.0 is possible?

Oops, *my* bad. I released 3.0 from master instead of unstable. I’ve just done a reverse merge to fix it, and merged back so everything's in sync. Good thing you caught it before I shuffled the branches. Regards, John Ralls > On Apr 8, 2018, at 10:57 AM, Steve Cohen wrote: > > My bad, I forg

Re: [GNC] What is earliest version of Ubuntu for which building GnuCASH 3.0 is possible?

My bad, I forgot what I did! I didn't build from the tarball. I built what I got from doing git clone https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash.git which somehow brought down the unstable branch. Now I actually built from the tarball and got 3.0. Sorry for this noob error. On 04/08/2018 10

Re: [GNC] What is earliest version of Ubuntu for which building GnuCASH 3.0 is possible?

How are you running it? Perhaps it is running the old version. Run it by explicilty specifing the the full path the the executable from the terminal, something like /usr/local/bin/gnucash or wherever you installed it. If still no joy check the timestamp on the file you are running and make sure

What is earliest version of Ubuntu for which building GnuCASH 3.0 is possible?

I'm newly retired and have some time ... I have Ubuntu 14.0.4. I'm running GnuCash 2.6.1. But if I'm willing to build, is there any inherent reason why building 3.0 will fail in this environment? If not, I'll be willing to make the effort. I'd be glad for any information about bumps in the road
