2007-04-28 GnuCash IRC logs

00:10:03 <hampton> I added a "Check Printing" component.
00:19:14 *** blahdeblah has joined #gnucash
00:21:41 <blahdeblah> Hi. I'm using GNUcash to produce my business invoices. When i receive a payment from a customer, how can i mark the fact that the payment contains a GST (VAT) component, and put that in a separate account?
00:40:26 <fell> blahdeblah: Realy, did you read the manual?
00:42:55 <zach> hampton: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=434029 entered. Thanks.
01:05:46 <zach> hampton: who knew I was a software hacker. I think I've got a fix for that bug.
01:06:01 <zach> I'm compiling and will submit a patch if all's good...
01:07:34 <hampton> cool.
01:08:28 <zach> major code hacking, too... change i=0 to i=1 :)
01:18:05 <zach> ok it appears to work
01:18:58 <zach> but somehow the locale is goofed up now. it's using UK english instead of US.. and it was fine before (I think). did something change in the last dozen or so revs on svn?
01:26:19 <hampton> not that I know if
01:26:21 <hampton> of
01:27:08 <hampton> good night
01:27:24 *** hampton has quit IRC
01:43:38 *** zach has left #gnucash
01:45:59 <blahdeblah> fell: I read the manual (twice). There doesn't seem to be a way to split the payment when you tell it to process a payment. Do i just need to edit the transaction afterwards?
01:47:06 *** robert_ has quit IRC
01:48:11 <fell> blahdeblah: 1. create accounts (businessicome and tax)
01:49:00 <blahdeblah> Yep got them
01:52:30 <fell> 2. create a taxtable: business->tax table with your tax rates 1. VAT_full 2. VAT_reduced ... and assign the corresponding tax accounts
01:52:52 <fell> then link them to the corresponding income accounts
01:54:18 <blahdeblah> So there should be 2 accounts in the "tax table entries" field on the right in the tax tables screen?
01:56:19 <fell> first start with one taxrate named VAT_full and assign it to the account, where you collect the tax
01:56:50 <blahdeblah> Yep - got that
01:58:30 <fell> depending on your law and tax declaration rules, it may be smart to have different tax collection accounts. (Here in Germany i have german, european and other source with full and half and other rates)
01:58:48 <blahdeblah> It's very simple here in .au
01:59:27 <fell> now create you test client
02:01:12 <fell> In billing information you can assign the rules about currency and tax, if you has fereign clients with special rules
02:03:01 <fell> then start a new invoice
02:03:12 <fell> for that client
02:04:40 <fell> where are you?
02:11:37 <blahdeblah> sorry - busy trying to sort out my first business tax return
02:11:50 <blahdeblah> Got the invoicing part right, i think.
02:12:16 <blahdeblah> It's when i process a payment for an invoice that it doesn't seem to have the ability move those funds to two different accounts.
02:16:52 <fell> In the invoice you has columns: date, invoiced, description, action, income account, quantity, unit price, (discount type, how, _), tax(able, included, table), subtotal, tax. right?
02:17:00 <blahdeblah> Yes
02:17:55 <fell> first adjust income account and tax table
02:19:07 <fell> enter a quantity and a unit price. what do you see?
02:19:30 <blahdeblah> It calculates all of the tax part just fine.
02:19:34 <blahdeblah> It puts them in the right accounts.
02:19:43 <blahdeblah> Everything is good on the invoicing side
02:20:15 <fell> fine, now play around with the tax buttons and tell the effects
02:20:38 <blahdeblah> What do you mean? There's nothing to play with. It's putting tax on invoices into the right places.
02:21:04 <fell> taxable, tax included
02:21:15 <blahdeblah> Yes - they're doing exactly the right thing.
02:21:50 <blahdeblah> Now, when i come to process payments, i need a way of putting aside that tax money in a separate account so that i know how much i have to pay the government later.
02:23:48 <fell> As described before you should have created an account like liabilities:VAT and assigned in taxtable with VAT_full
02:25:17 <fell> this taxtable entry VAT_full you should have selected in the invoice field taxtable.
02:25:55 <blahdeblah> I have a tax table called "GST", and it's assigned to "Liabilities:Accounts Payable:GST Payable"
02:26:24 <blahdeblah> I select it on all invoices
02:27:45 <fell> ok, then after processing payment, the money should be split to your income and your tax account
02:28:22 <blahdeblah> It's not - it all goes into Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account
02:49:12 <fell> Sorry, in SVN 16002 I cannot post invoices, because Post to Account is not selectable
02:50:26 <fell> blahdeblah: So I can only try to help by theory

10:33:48 <andi5> hmpf... so i spawn perl for f::q and have file descriptors to/from the process... if i use fdes->output and close-output-port after the process has finished, guile crashes with an error (cannot flush the output port) .... may i just drop closing the port? (the file descriptors are closed later)

12:07:45 <zach> how does gnucash chose locale under linux? my debian install seems to be using UK english for some reason (deb 2.0.5 package and svn build)
12:07:45 <gncbot> zach: Sent 7 hours and 16 minutes ago: <andi5> WRT http://lists.gnucash.org/logs/2007-04-27.html#T21:29:01 ... i get them too, simply ignore them
12:07:52 *** bonez39 has quit IRC
12:09:10 <andi5> you are the forth....what the heck? so: you mean the interface is en_UK, but you wanted to see something different?
12:10:21 <zach> it seems so. I'm in the US, so I don't like to spell check, "cheque" :)
12:10:38 <andi5> zach: what is the output of `locale'?
12:10:38 <jsled> can you pastebin the output of `locale`?
12:10:50 <andi5> jsled: ` or ' ?
12:11:16 <jsled> I usually use ``, thinking of the perl/shell backtick operator.
12:11:23 <zach> http://pastebin.ca/462843
12:11:26 <jsled> Though in actual use, I almost always use $(), now.
12:11:46 <andi5> so i see all of them suffer LANGUAGE fallbacks
12:11:50 <jsled> But it just doesn't seem as clear to say so here, for some reason.
12:11:51 <andi5> s,see,think,
12:12:16 <jsled> maybe.
12:12:40 <andi5> zach: what about `LANGUAGE= gnucash'?
12:13:11 <zach> ? you want me to set that?
12:13:20 <andi5> i want you to execute that
12:13:42 <jsled> notice the space.
12:13:50 <jsled> another angle: `unset LANGUAGE; gnucash`
12:14:30 <zach> i didn't notice the space, but the cut and paste did :)
12:14:37 <zach> check is spelled right now :)
12:15:52 <zach> FWIW, those settings for locale were Debian's defaults since the install. I haven't touched any since then.
12:19:25 <andi5> Q: should we ship some en_US.po?
12:20:04 <jsled> symlink to C ?
12:20:15 <andi5> because i guess you do not fallback to C, but rather en_UK (which you do not like) ....
12:20:25 <andi5> jsled: is that possible?
12:29:31 <jsled> I do not know.
12:31:19 <andi5> back in a few hours

14:05:49 <andi5> hiho cstim_slow
14:12:33 <andi5> cstim_slow: do you have an eye on the announcement of 2.1.1? :-)
14:16:01 <andi5> cstim_slow: oh... in case you are interested: there are some multiply assigned mnemonics in the account dialog and for consistency, it should probably be "tipp des tages anzeigen" in the pref dialog :)
14:19:23 * cstim_slow 's your full-time babysitter for tonight. I just cleaned up some nappies with Maia poop.
14:19:32 <cstim_slow> Maia taking a long bath is next.
14:19:52 * cstim_slow is back after 21:00 MEST (Maia's bedtime)
14:20:16 <andi5> ok, have a nice evening (will have left then)
14:20:25 <andi5> or... be gone (?)
14:20:32 <andi5> whatever
14:21:20 <andi5> 'k, f::q works.... let us test this on linux
14:21:56 <cstim_slow> andi5: which string exactly needs to be changed?
14:22:50 <andi5> i am not sure about the mnemonics (i just saw that there are several _a's and some other letter too.....) .... the other: Display \"_tip of the day\" dialog
14:25:16 <andi5> maybe be_zeichnung vs _beschreibung ...... aktie/_währung vs kontoart(?) vs _abbrechen...... hauptkonto(?) vs _hilfe
14:28:40 <andi5> cstim_slow: another question is about LANGUAGE and a missing en_US.[mp]o (one might fallback to UK english) .... see above ... (no need to fix this now, of course :))

14:40:38 <zach> andi5: you say f::q works in windows now? so if I grab the latest and compile (install.sh) it'll work? or do you have to run that install-fq-mods.bat at some point?
14:40:53 <andi5> it works locally for me
14:41:03 <andi5> i hope to commit it really soon
14:41:33 <zach> ok
14:41:45 <zach> lemme know and i'll test it
14:41:55 <andi5> but you can start already... get install-fq-mods.bat and try it (copy to your installation directory, like c:\program files\gnucash)
14:42:13 <andi5> +bin
14:42:21 <zach> ok will do
14:42:25 <andi5> thanks
14:42:45 <andi5> (will leave in 30 minutes for some hours, hope to be back in time for the release)
14:44:55 <zach> hmm.. some of us don't have perl installed on windows... will install.sh be modded for that, too?
14:45:37 <andi5> no, ... online quotes will depend on a perl with finance::quote and friends
14:45:49 <andi5> and the setup.exe should not be bloated any more
14:46:23 <zach> ok, do you have any docs outlining that anywhere?
14:46:25 *** chintan has joined #gnucash
14:46:32 <andi5> http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Windows#Q:_Anything_else.3F
14:46:43 <andi5> but it is out-dated already ;-)
14:54:01 <andi5> zach: did you follow the recent openssl changes?
14:54:29 <zach> deleting that openssh dir in the install?
14:55:21 <zach> i'm in the process of buiding 16015 right now, so I should be all set. right?
14:55:24 <andi5> if you mean whether you should delete the openssl directory before running install.sh .... _then_ yes ;-)
14:55:35 <zach> ahh.. yes
14:55:37 <andi5> it should bark in openssl, at least i hope so
14:55:42 <zach> it did
14:55:44 <andi5> good
14:56:10 <andi5> did it bark because of the svn bin directory coming before openssl/bin?
14:57:14 <andi5> (it may not if you did not execute all these commands printed at the end of a successful install.sh run, i.e. your msys\etc\profile.d\installer.sh is empty)
14:57:40 <zach> uh... that's probably it
14:57:44 <zach> it whined about 0.9.7c
14:58:04 <zach> or i should say the "old OpenSSL"
14:58:14 <andi5> yep
14:59:17 <andi5> 'k, i did not break linux
14:59:33 <zach> waiting for compile to finish to test f::q... it takes forever on windows. compared to linux anyways, and my windows machine is much faster...
14:59:54 <andi5> hehe.... i suppose it is the factor 3 here
15:14:15 <andi5> ok, have fun

17:25:02 <jsled> Hey Zoolooc. The 2.1.1 tarball will have an ebuild you can put in an overlay.
17:25:28 <jsled> It's <http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/gnucash-2.1.x.ebuild>, and should work for the 2.1.0 release, too.
17:25:34 <jsled> What do you mean that the 2.0.5 ebuild doens't work?
17:26:14 <Zoolooc> well, it causes a sandbox viloation
17:26:21 <Zoolooc> violation
17:26:22 <jsled> pfft.
17:26:58 * Wilddev never had a sandbox violation
17:27:01 <jsled> Though it shouldn't.
17:27:53 <Zoolooc> anyway, now I'm really determined to switch my banking from windows (T-Online Banking with HBCI) to one of qbankmanager/kmymoney2 or gnucash in linux, so I'm not yet sure...
17:28:46 <Zoolooc> jsled: thankx for the ebuild, I will put that in my overlay
17:29:15 <jsled> 2.1.1 should be out tonight, right Wilddev?
17:31:15 <Wilddev> yes
17:31:20 <Wilddev> I'm working on it now
17:31:47 <jsled> awesome.
17:31:59 <Zoolooc> that's cool
17:32:09 <jsled> I've been waiting for the new icon to install 2.1.x. :)
17:33:53 <Zoolooc> guys, from my T-Online software I could export transactions to CSV, and I have to use aqbanking, do you know, if I import them with the aqbanking utility, would all banking frontends using aqbanking "see" the same data? I'm asking because I'm not yet decided which one to use...
17:36:32 <Wilddev> new icon?
17:36:50 <zach> the new icon is nice
17:36:55 <jsled> http://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2007-April/020405.html
17:37:13 <Wilddev> aha the tango one
17:37:25 <Wilddev> jsled: did u make it the default now or what?
17:38:01 <jsled> yeah, it's the window icon. And the ebuild should use it, too.
17:39:03 <Wilddev> nice
17:39:26 <Wilddev> that reminds me, I should uninstall the 2.1.0 version before testing this

19:22:10 *** |gunni| has quit IRC
19:22:31 <andi5> dbr: in c:\soft\activeperl, there is an installer.bat.... execute that
19:22:32 <dbr> Hmm. I can make both work, I think, I was just hoping not to be juggling versions
19:23:15 <andi5> winnipeg also provides a repository for 5.6 modules... gimme a second
19:23:21 <dbr> It'll be a while -- I launched a build without thinking, and I'm kind of interested in how it will turn out
19:24:05 <andi5> i have tested only 3 or 4 retrievals, but they seemed to work flawlessly :)
19:24:24 <dbr> sounds great!
19:25:07 <dbr> I got gnc-fq-check to work yesterday at the office, but couldn't get gnucash to use the right perl
19:25:14 <andi5> dbr: use http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages/Crypt-SSLeay.ppd instead
19:25:53 <andi5> dbr: what perls do you have? one activeperl and one for msys?
19:26:38 <dbr> no - the default location for activeperl 5.8 and the 5.6 one brought in by install.sh
19:27:14 <andi5> you will probably want to install the c:\soft\activeperl one... use the installer.bat :)
19:27:23 <andi5> iirc, this was really easy
19:28:15 <dbr> I'll give it a go
19:29:28 <andi5> dbr: the activeperl we unzipped is not integrated a lot.... it is not added to any PATH, we only set INTLTOOL_PERL, so that configure scripts actually work
19:30:37 <dbr> but it gets hardcoded into gnc-fq-check (and probably the other helper scripts)
19:31:11 <andi5> windows does not understand she-bangs :-)
19:31:17 <andi5> simply ignore the first line
19:31:54 <andi5> install-fq-mods.bat will show you how we call the script (perl -w gnc-fq-check)
19:33:07 <dbr> I looked at it briefly, but didn't really understand -- so I just went ahead and did a normal build.
19:33:22 <dbr> still waiting for it to finish. 1.5 hours later...
19:33:28 <andi5> hehe :)
19:49:28 <zach> hey andi5: install.sh does not put ssleay32.dll into the bin directory
19:49:41 <zach> so the .bat file fails right away
19:49:54 <Wilddev> 2.1.1 is up on the ftp btw
19:49:59 <zach> and I searched for ssleay32.dll and it doesn't exist anywhere
19:50:05 <andi5> maybe i was a bit unclear... i mean the bin directory created by setup.exe :)
19:50:28 <zach> hmm.. i didn't get that far :)
19:50:33 <andi5> like c:\program files\gnucash\bin :)
19:50:38 <andi5> well, execute dist.sh
19:50:48 <zach> for the svn builds I just run install.sh and run from /inst/bin
19:50:58 <zach> ok..
19:52:05 <andi5> zach: you will see that dist.sh copies the bat file to c:\soft\gnucash\dist\bin and that will be used for and by setup.exe
19:52:30 <zach> ok. does it create ssleay32.dll, too?
19:52:35 <andi5> yep
19:52:47 <andi5> it is a copy of libssl32.dll
19:52:52 <zach> ahh
19:53:58 <zach> so really for a svn build I should run both install.sh and dist.sh each time then?
19:54:25 <andi5> no, not really... there also is not much reason to run install-fq-mods.bat more than once
19:55:59 <zach> so for any future svn builds I should just be able to run install.sh and run the .exe from c:\soft\gnucash\inst\bin and everything will work great, right :)
19:56:07 <andi5> zach: it was more important for me that the 2.1.1 setup.exe works (i hope it really does ;-)) .... we can improve the situation for svn users all the time
19:56:21 <zach> certainly.
19:56:40 <andi5> do not run gnucash-bin.exe... use either gnucash or gnucash.bat
19:56:56 <zach> right... that's what I meant :)
19:57:18 <zach> i'll grab setup from ftp and put it on the wife's machine...
19:58:24 <andi5> you will have to grab the setup from sf.net, you know :)
19:59:22 <zach> yep.. and it's not there yet
19:59:38 <andi5> Wilddev: nice :-)
19:59:54 <andi5> zach: nbinont will have to build it first
20:06:14 *** _gunni_ has quit IRC
20:07:31 <Wilddev> andi5: can you check the homepage and see if the release announcement looks ok
20:08:23 <zach> andi5: FWIW, ssleay32.dll is not in /dist/bin after running dist.sh
20:08:34 <andi5> Wilddev: i can :) ... would be good if some english speaking dev could do that too
20:08:49 <Wilddev> lol
20:08:50 <zach> libssl.dll and libeay32.dll are in there, though
20:10:33 <andi5> zach: oh... you are right.... stupid me... i have changed install.sh -> http://svn.gnucash.org/trac/browser/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/install.sh#L370
20:10:36 *** Wilddev changes topic to " Welcome! Please ask your question and *wait*. Gnucash 2.1.1 is released! <http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ>. This is a *publically-logged* channel, <http://lists.gnucash.org/logs/>"
20:16:40 <zach> ok, so you're telling me that ssleay32.dll is supposed to be in the opensll/bin directory? becuase it
20:16:43 <zach> 's not there either
20:16:59 *** steve-e has joined #gnucash
20:18:04 <andi5> zach: yes.... i just claim that you built openssl while the instructions were in a flux ;-) ... just make a copy like they tell you (you can also remove the complete directory and rerun install.sh) ... sorry for the inconvenience, but there are already enough safenets in there
20:18:59 <zach> ahh... cool
20:20:52 <andi5> Wilddev: looks very much like the announcement on the wiki page :) did you chance anything, did you face problems we should better fix for 2.1.2? .... anyway, too bad, but f::q support on windows actually _is_ new but too shiny for the release notes (a few hours only)
20:21:03 <andi5> replace chance by change :)
20:21:17 <Wilddev> aha
20:21:37 <Wilddev> no I didnt change it, just copied it from the wiki
20:21:42 <zach> and your English grammar is acceptable ;)
20:23:18 <andi5> zach: you got mail (setup.exe on >=monday)
20:24:12 <andi5> i wonder whether i should rename /bin/perl to /bin/intltool-perl, so it will not conflict with the activeperl one...
20:24:33 <andi5> or msys-perl
20:24:46 <dbr> I'd vote for either of those
20:25:40 <andi5> nice thing: i can test building from tarball tomorrow =)
20:26:28 <andi5> dbr, zach: any news on the f::q front?
20:26:38 <andi5> (google translator de->en)
20:26:50 <dbr> I'm still waiting. Close to done, though
20:27:12 <andi5> dbr: have you noticed block_step? this can save you the minutes for inst_docs :)
20:27:30 <zach> I've rebuilt a couple time while it was in flux, so I'm going to go ahead and start fresh, recompile and let you know
20:28:29 <dbr> falls in the category of noticed, but not acted on yet. I will take a look there.
20:28:39 *** zach has quit IRC
20:28:44 <andi5> zach: i am sorry for that.... there is an easy rule: follow the gnucash-commits mailing list or trac and watch out for changes in install.sh, especially the inst_* blocks
20:29:15 <andi5> if there are some, remove the corresponding installation directory
20:30:45 <andi5> sometimes version numbers are changed in defaults.sh too... that means rebuilding some part of the deps too (typically only the one affected directly)
20:31:15 <dbr> andi5: are the inst_* block changes tied into the gconf windows reappearing?
20:31:32 <dbr> and staying visible
20:31:43 <andi5> you see gconfd windows?
20:32:09 <dbr> one
20:32:23 <andi5> when?
20:32:27 <dbr> and it stayed around after I quit gnucash
20:33:18 <dbr> don't know when it appeared. I had a bunch of normal windows (sx etc.) appear on launch. when I close gnucash, I could see the gconfd window on top of the msys window
20:33:55 <andi5> 'k.... did you install other gnome software recently? ... another question: have you installed depends.exe?
20:34:05 <dbr> this has happened before, and I think it has gone away when I blow away the the gnome directory
20:34:18 <dbr> don't think I have depends.exe
20:34:31 <dbr> and gnome installs were not intentional
20:34:31 <andi5> go fetch it :)
20:34:43 <dbr> hints on where?
20:34:55 <dbr> fetch, and install
20:35:04 <andi5> http://www.dependencywalker.com/depends22_x86.zip
20:36:51 <andi5> then open c:\soft\gnome\libexec\gconfd-2.exe
20:38:47 <dbr> well. It detects errors.
20:39:05 <andi5> that is fine....look at the gconfd-2.exe line, column subsystem
20:39:41 <dbr> says 'console'
20:39:48 <andi5> ahaaa... GUI for me
20:40:16 <dbr> I'll blow gnome away before the next build. That should fix it.
20:40:21 <andi5> http://svn.gnucash.org/trac/browser/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/install.sh#L531 is the line that made the change
20:40:57 <andi5> i have an idea... maybe gconfd-2.exe was opened and this cleanup did not work because of some permission problem?
20:41:01 <andi5> just a wild guess
20:41:39 <dbr> possibly, but only if it was opened by something else in the install. I didn't have it open from the command line
20:42:39 <andi5> gnucash-bin.exe spawns it ... and it tends be die a little while after gnucash..... BUT you cannot remove the gnome directory completely anyway in that time frame..... so the theory is not very good ;-)
20:44:13 <dbr> I'm trying to run /c/soft/active-perl/Installer.bat - the script is not happy.
20:44:14 <andi5> Wilddev: thanks!
20:44:28 <Wilddev> andi5: yw :-)
20:45:07 <dbr> can't find Win32.pm
20:45:32 <andi5> dbr: may you pastebin its output?
20:47:09 <andi5> dbr: another question: do you have c:\soft\gnome\libexec\gconfd-2.console.exe?
20:47:28 <dbr> http://www.pastebin.ca/463580
20:47:48 <andi5> dbr: it is a .bat file.... just double click it :)
20:48:15 <dbr> duh.
20:48:29 <dbr> yes to gconf-2.console.exe
20:48:39 <andi5> ok
20:48:58 <dbr> When I run Installer.bat, what
20:49:10 <dbr> s the right place to tell it to install?
20:49:18 <andi5> does not matter
20:49:45 <andi5> make sure that your perl is in your PATH at the end of the day ;-)
20:50:38 <dbr> ok. I let it add it to the windows collection of path. I can always mess with that later.
20:51:25 * andi5 will try to pimp install-fq-mods.bat
20:52:33 *** henriq has quit IRC
20:52:43 <dbr> it does end up in the msys path list after '.'
20:53:36 <andi5> dbr: yep, it is a pity..... but the more i think about it, the more i hesitate to rename /bin/perl, given the vast number of problems that may create
20:54:23 <andi5> but you can append stuff to c:\soft\msys\profile.d/installer.sh (or any file in that directory, ending on .sh) ... just prepend your perl path to PATH there)
20:55:00 <dbr> OK. I'll just keep plugging. But Installer.bat installed 5.6.1. Wouldn't I rather have 5.8?
20:55:25 <andi5> it should work with both versions.... i have not tested it yet, but i doubt there will be major problems
20:55:45 <andi5> just change the install-fq-mods.bat script to the winnipeg url i gave you above
20:55:58 <dbr> after all, I already have active-perl 5.6. something in /c/soft/
20:56:02 <dbr> from install.sh
20:56:12 <andi5> forget that activeperl ... assume it is not there
20:57:01 <dbr> OK. I'm a bit slow on some of these things. As long as I can forget it's there, I'll back out the regular ActivePerl install and install 5.8
20:57:37 <dbr> pay no attention to the man behind the curtain...
20:57:50 <andi5> rrrright :)
20:58:01 <dbr> probably not a good reference for someone who didn't grow up in the US, though
20:58:06 <andi5> he may kill you but you do not want to know that
