10:19:46 <M0E-lnx> can someone help me sort out the slib problem?
10:19:47 <M0E-lnx> again?
10:20:05 <jsled> I suppose.
10:20:12 * jsled goes to find what we told you to do last time...
10:20:18 <M0E-lnx> right
10:20:20 <M0E-lnx> I forgot
10:20:29 <M0E-lnx> I forgot the last step to installing slib
10:21:28 <jsled> http://lists.gnucash.org/logs/2007-06-27.html#T10:50:41
10:22:20 <M0E-lnx> killer logs
10:23:32 <M0E-lnx> I got a new error this time
10:23:52 <M0E-lnx> Could now find slib/require.scm
10:24:00 <M0E-lnx> now=not
10:25:03 <jsled> like <http://lists.gnucash.org/logs/2007-06-27.html#T11:13:00>? :)
10:25:29 <M0E-lnx> yes
10:26:08 <M0E-lnx> I remember I made a symlink somewhere...
10:26:10 <M0E-lnx> to fix that
10:26:51 *** twunder has quit IRC
10:26:58 * jsled doesn't know, sorry.
10:29:28 <M0E-lnx> ok.. found the symlink
10:29:45 <M0E-lnx> needed to symlink /usr/share/guile/slib to /usr/share/slib
10:30:05 <M0E-lnx> but now, I get this
10:30:19 <M0E-lnx> ERROR: No such file or directory "/usr/share/guile/slib/mklibcat"
10:30:39 <jsled> Just like <http://lists.gnucash.org/logs/2007-06-27.html#T11:19:38>.
10:30:57 <M0E-lnx> exactly
10:32:40 <M0E-lnx> I think I got it
10:34:10 <chris> déjà vu
10:34:35 <jsled> indeed.
10:35:50 <M0E-lnx> heh

14:21:50 *** tats has joined #gnucash
14:22:20 <tats> i have trouble making an invoice in Euros
14:22:52 <warlord> Are your accounts in Euros? Is your customer in Euro? Is your A/R and Income accounts in Euro?
14:23:07 <tats> my accound is in CAD
14:23:12 <tats> my customer is in Euro
14:23:34 <warlord> Right, you can't do that.
14:23:45 <warlord> The business features are all single-currency.
14:24:05 <warlord> You need all yours business-touching accounts in Euro (A/R, Income..)
14:24:06 <tats> ok
14:24:25 *** roxy_ has quit IRC
14:24:26 <tats> hmmm well i SELDOM have euro customres, usually its in CAD
14:24:57 <warlord> doesn't matter.
14:25:15 <warlord> You could have only one out of 10,000 invoices, and you still need the extra accounts.
14:25:53 <tats> warlord: ok, you mean i need first to create extra accounts in Euros
14:25:56 <tats> one for income
14:26:09 <tats> and one for A/R (what is A/R btw?)
14:26:20 <warlord> Yes. (Accounts Receivable)
14:26:24 <tats> ok
14:26:33 <tats> and then i guess i can transfer the money, right?
14:26:53 <tats> hmmm
14:26:55 <warlord> you use those accounts the same way you'd use other business accounts
14:27:03 <warlord> You just need a parallel set.
14:27:16 <tats> the problem is, when i receive the money in the Income (Euro) account...
14:27:38 <tats> ... it will be paid by a transfer or check in my CAD bank account
14:27:47 <tats> will gnucash deal with that?
14:27:56 <warlord> not specifically, and not automatically.
14:28:41 <tats> warlord: so what is the way around
14:28:45 <tats> if there is one
14:28:47 <palatin> why not just editing the html invoice ?
14:28:54 <tats> ok
14:28:56 <tats> you're right
14:29:04 <warlord> palatin: how would that help?
14:29:10 <warlord> Unless you invoice them in CAD..
14:29:11 <tats> actually i already sent the invoice...
14:29:15 <warlord> The numbers would be wrong.
14:29:24 <tats> ... i'll just make a "dummy" invoice in CAD in gnucash
14:29:27 <tats> it will do it
14:29:32 <palatin> yep, but that's easy to fix ?
14:29:51 <warlord> Well, you need to unpost and re-post the invoice to fix the numbers.
14:30:22 <warlord> tats, if you're going to do a dummy CAD invoice, then you might as well wait until you receive your payment and know what the exchange rate is, and then back-date the invoice in gnucash..
14:30:57 <tats> warlord: or just unpost the invoice and make the changes
14:31:12 <tats> that way i'll have a good estimate in my A/R
14:31:14 <warlord> sure.. that would work too.
14:31:21 <tats> cool
14:31:25 <tats> ok thanks warlord
14:32:36 <warlord> you're welcome
14:35:27 <palatin> jsled > I more or less ported gnucash-docs to gnome-doc-utils, and it indeed seems useless, mostly because it's stupid to do literal translation. A whole lot of things are just too country-dependent
14:36:37 <jsled> Ah, that's too bad. It does seems like large portions of the guide ... for instance, the parts about "splits" generically, could still be useful, even if the example is US-centric.
14:38:16 <palatin> that's true, but I don't know how to handle specific docs this way
14:39:02 <palatin> anyway I will ask for advice on the mailing list
14:39:28 <warlord> ok.

16:04:46 <esodan> Hi all, just to inform I'd sended a PATCH for QofCollection, it will convert to GObject, and is tested with the lastest TRUNK and the resent 2.1.5 release!!
16:04:58 *** tats has quit IRC
16:05:35 <warlord> esodan: I saw the email but I've been sick so I haven't been able to read through it to apply it. Maybe someone else can? Or create a bug report and attach it there?
16:06:06 *** tats has joined #gnucash
16:06:43 <esodan> warlord: well take your time, at least I'll try to create a bug report and attach it...
16:06:52 <warlord> ok
16:07:08 <warlord> maybe chris or hampton will get to it.
16:50:01 <jsled> It skimmed throught it, it seemed roughly fine. Regardless, I don't think it should be applied until after 2.2 is released/branched.

17:07:29 *** harnold has quit IRC
17:09:37 *** tats has quit IRC
17:15:39 *** palatin has quit IRC
17:25:42 <esodan> jsled: Ok, take the time you need to apply the patch now of later :)
17:26:49 <esodan> I'll wait for this patch to be applied in order to see some other sugestions about QofCollection...
17:27:16 <esodan> jsled: Do I need to add a bug report?
17:28:01 <jsled> It might be best; that's the "system of record" for patches and enhancements.
17:31:42 *** zarchne has quit IRC
17:32:13 <esodan> Sorry, but I don't understand... could you tell me what "system of record" means? becouse I don't find any componet called "system of record" to create the bug to...
17:32:54 <jsled> All I mean is that bugzilla is the preferred location for patches.
17:32:58 <jsled> http://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=GnuCash
17:34:25 *** zarchne has joined #gnucash
17:35:19 <esodan> Aaaa.... mmmmm.... ok, I'm there, but Do I need to add this patch to SQL Backend componet?
17:35:48 <jsled> I'd just add it to General.
17:40:37 <esodan> I'd created the bug report 453502 with the patch attached.
17:46:01 <warlord> esodan: "system of record" means the system where we store the records so we dont lose data.
17:53:35 <esodan> warlord: thanks for your time :)
17:55:36 <warlord> you're welcome
