08:09:36 <administrator> Hello to All.
08:09:38 <administrator> I am trying to build a debian package on ubuntu dapper drake 6.06 with the following command here
08:09:40 <administrator> sudo dpkg-buildpackage -D -B -rfakeroot -k[[GPG-KEY]]
08:10:24 <administrator> The hole process breaks after about 25 Minutes with the following Errormessage

08:12:56 <administrator> it looks like dpkg-buildpackage makes a directory in the following path
08:12:57 <administrator> mkdir -p /home/administrator/My-Downloads/gnucash-2.0.5/debian/gnucash/usr/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults
08:12:59 <administrator> However the make file search for a directory in the following path
08:13:00 <administrator> GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE=xml::/usr/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults /usr/bin/gconftool-2 --makefile-install-rule apps_gnucash_history.schemas
08:13:02 <administrator> Can somebody help me with this issue ?

17:51:55 <warlord> * waves from Boston *
18:32:18 <jsled> warlord: hey ... back home?
18:32:28 <warlord> yeah
18:32:42 <jsled> warlord: good. Glad your back safe. Good trip?
18:33:17 <warlord> Yeah, it was.
18:33:28 <warlord> customs was easy too... once i got my bags.
18:34:45 <warlord> So, I just committed two changesets in my proposed gobject dev branch.
18:35:05 <warlord> (mostly to merge QofEntity into QofInstance)
18:35:21 <warlord> the branch compiles and passes "make check"
18:37:27 <warlord> still no gobjects, yet..
18:37:36 <warlord> But i'm working on some macros to make that easy.
18:38:15 <jsled> I noticed. Haven't taken a look, yet, but I'm sure it's good stuff.
18:39:12 <warlord> the joys of a 7-hour plane ride with in-seat power :)
18:39:16 <jsled> heh.
18:41:38 <warlord> my next plan is to work on some basic gobject support, but i might have some commits that destabilize.
18:49:04 <warlord> But considering my body already thinks it's nearly 1am, I'm probably not going to do much more tonight.

19:59:24 <hampton> warlord: welcome back
20:01:08 <warlord> thanks.
20:01:14 <hampton> I was wondering when I'd get to the point where I just had to start doing that QoF change and doing GObject work, but you beat me to it.
20:03:16 <warlord> heh
20:05:45 <warlord> I'm just planning to do a simple first pass.. first i want to get libqof to build with basic gobject. right now, tho, the branch builds and passes all the tests.
20:06:05 <hampton> ship it! ;-)
20:06:13 <warlord> heh
20:08:35 <warlord> do you really want me to merge the qofentity change back into trunk now??
20:13:14 <hampton> I was semi-serious. If it compiles, runs, you've tried reports, etc, etc, then go ahead and commit it. Better to get it in and stabilized than to have a much larger QoF/GObject commit later on.
20:13:31 <hampton> I a;so think its easier if you have discrete commits for each phase of the conversion.
20:13:41 <hampton> I also ...
20:14:45 <warlord> Well, it's committed..
20:14:50 <warlord> (on the branch)
20:15:03 <warlord> but I'd like to get basic gobject support done first.
20:15:19 <hampton> k
20:15:20 <warlord> just create/destroy, nothing more.
20:21:04 <warlord> I think I can make it easy with some helper macros.
20:21:27 <warlord> question: can you #define inside a #define?
20:21:41 <warlord> (I dont think you can, but..)
20:21:48 <hampton> I don't think so.
20:22:15 <warlord> it's really too bad.
20:23:03 <warlord> I'd love to be able to say QOF_GOBJECT_DECL(qof_instance,QOF_INSTANCE) and have it build all the gobject #defines properly.
20:39:17 <warlord> Yeah, a simple test shows that I can't #define inside a #define. Damn.

23:39:11 <Linuxbeak> hello. I'm having the toughest time emerging gnucash 2.0.5... it's complaining about SLIB and the bugzilla link that's provided is cryptic at best.
23:39:31 <Linuxbeak> was wondering if anyone could help... considering that I am currently unable to access my financial data. Again.

23:47:32 <benoitg> Linuxbeak: I know nothing about gentoo
23:47:42 <Linuxbeak> :(
23:49:36 <Linuxbeak> okay, well, i need to go to bed... i'll be back tomorrow
