It's also in MELPA.

Looks like MELPA, MELPA Stable, or manually are the suggested ways to
install it 
(https://github.com/ledger/ledger-mode/blob/8bad528d43007e0310b5e72e6e021b502b30495c/README.md).

Re: Is ledger available in debian or ubuntu package manager?

[Jacob MacDonald]

(On Pop!_OS here, but) Ledger seems to be in the Ubuntu universe list.
Are those enabled in your docker images? I've had to manually allow
them on every Debian-based install I've used.

Re: How to use ledger-cli in a Rust project? (A rust GTK ledger desktop app)

[Jacob MacDonald]

I'm no C++ or Rust guru, but as far as I know C++ bindings are far harder
to generate than simple C ones. One advantage you do have is that Rust uses
LLVM, so maybe you'll have luck using a Clang stack to build a shared
Ledger library with sensible bindings? The Graal project on the JVM also
has some interesting pieces for polyglot LLVM bytecode interpretation.

Re: ledger.el *very* slow to load account names

[Jacob MacDonald]

You should be able to press tab to expand those calls further. If you want
to screenshot the profiler I might be able to see something but I'm afraid
I'm not super familiar with the Ledger codebase. The profiler is just
useful for discovering performance regressions in my experience.

Re: building ledger on arch linux: python version

[Jacob MacDonald]

The solution I'm seeing online is to update the python symlink to point at
python2 instead of 3. On Gentoo you could use eselect, not sure if Arch has
an equivalent.

Best,

Jacob.

Re: Virtual Accounts and Ledger-Mode Tab Completion

[Jacob MacDonald]

To be clear, you're seeing:

1) Accounts which have non-bracketed instances can be completed inside and
outside of brackets.
2) Accounts which are only ever entered in bracketed form cannot be
completed either inside or outside.

Just had the chance to test the bug out and wanted to make sure we're
experiencing the same issue.

Thanks!

Re: How to handle bank transfer delays

[Jacob MacDonald]

I'm no accountant or Ledger expert, but as I understand it, this is why
Ledger supports cleared, uncleared, and pending transactions.

See http://ledger-cli.org/3.0/doc/ledger3.html#Transactions-and-Comments for
details on how it works. Personally, I don't find the full spectrum of
markings to be necessary; I just add a transaction when I initiate it and
update it with the asterisk at the end of the week.

(DATE ACCOUNT etc. -> DATE * ACCOUNT etc.)

There are commands to display balances of only cleared amounts, etc. I
don't use them much, but you can read about them here:
http://ledger-cli.org/3.0/doc/ledger3.html#Cleared-Report.

Re: Moving ledger-mode out of the main ledger repository

[Jacob MacDonald]

I would suggest just using semver, treating a bump of the required Ledger
version as a breaking change and noting the minimum required Ledger version
in the release notes. I'm saying this with no knowledge of whether Ledger
likes semver or has a problem with unsynchronized version numbers/large
major versions :-).
