01:00:29 *** yenemy has joined #gnucash
01:02:24 <yenemy> hi all... just looking to install gnucash 2.2.0 on ubuntu feisty; are the instructions on the gnucash wiki accurate? there's a report on the ubuntu forums that it wrecked some guy's install :|
01:06:56 <nbinont> you should get 2.2.0 from the ubuntu repositories, if it's there (I haven't checked)
01:07:13 <yenemy> nope... looking through the package manager, the latest version is 2.0.2
01:08:37 *** findlay has quit IRC
01:09:28 <nbinont> :( seems the latest version they have is 2.0.5 http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?searchon=names&version=all&exact=1&keywords=gnucash
01:09:39 <yenemy> doh... yeah
01:09:58 <yenemy> so i'm faced with trying to compile it?
01:11:55 <nbinont> yah, until they catch up
01:12:52 <nbinont> are you a new gnucash user? If so you might want to use 2.0.5 and wait until they have 2.2.0 packaged
01:13:17 <yenemy> yeah, brand new to it
01:13:35 <yenemy> well, i'm going to be running gnucash on three systems, 2 of which are winxp :/
01:14:05 <yenemy> so i won't be able to port the files from the winxp systems, which run 2.2.0, to my ubuntu install
01:14:23 *** findlay has joined #gnucash
01:14:38 <nbinont> hrm....gah, yah - you'll have to compile 2.2.0 then
01:14:45 <yenemy> heheh
01:14:47 <yenemy> fun
01:14:50 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
01:14:58 <yenemy> thanks, just wanted to make sure... i guess i'll risk the instructions on the wiki
01:15:01 <nbinont> hi warlord
01:15:03 <warlord> well, you CAN... But you'll have an extra "root account" when you backport to 2.0.5
01:15:06 <warlord> hi nathan
01:15:22 <yenemy> hm...
01:15:30 <warlord> (so long as you dont have SXes)
01:15:42 <yenemy> heh... i have no idea what that means
01:15:58 <yenemy> i'm new to linux as well
01:16:03 <nbinont> scheduled transactions
01:16:24 <yenemy> sounds like something i'll have
01:18:20 * yenemy takes a deep breath
01:18:43 <yenemy> starting install a la the wiki, if you see a sudden disconnect, you'll have the answer as to whether it works ;)
01:18:59 <nbinont> warlord: do you know who packages gnucash for ubuntu?
01:19:11 <warlord> nope, i do not.
01:20:10 <yenemy> well, i tried out the windows version today; looks pretty spiff
01:22:29 <warlord> 2.2.1 will be better.
01:23:40 <yenemy> :/ well, hopefully i'll have learned enough to upgrade by that point
01:23:50 <yenemy> please don't tell me it's coming out like... tomorrow
01:23:58 <nbinont> sunday
01:24:01 <nbinont> lol
01:24:03 <yenemy> :P
01:24:03 <warlord> I think the plan is this weekend.
01:24:10 <yenemy> oh, he was serious
01:24:13 <yenemy> gaaaarh
01:24:54 <warlord> Yes, he was.
01:24:59 <yenemy> hmhm.
01:25:22 <yenemy> will it have all the same, uh... dependencies?
01:26:52 <warlord> 2.2.1 vs. 2.2.0?
01:26:57 <yenemy> yeah
01:27:04 <warlord> of course.
01:27:20 <yenemy> okay; not sure how often dependencies change. roughly analogous to .dlls on win systems?
01:28:02 <warlord> generally, no. but the gnucash win32 is self contained with all the dependencies.
01:28:07 <warlord> anyways, gotta run to bed.

01:28:15 <yenemy> cool... thanks all, i'm off too

05:24:43 <Idlefix> Hello ...
05:25:45 <Idlefix> I'm using gnucash on gentoo. Every two or three month gnucash refuses to start. ("You don't have bug-buddy installed ...")
05:25:57 <Idlefix> Is this a known problem?
05:26:26 <Idlefix> What underlying libraries (not changing their lib-names!) can cause this?
06:05:41 <Idlefix> Just for someone possibly reading this and being interested. It's been guile with thread-support, causing gnucash to crash.
06:05:46 <Idlefix> Goodbye

07:26:08 <Cognition> Hi all. I have a question regarding Partners in small Businesses: How do I setup accounts for businesses with partners? let's say I have 3 partners ..
07:26:37 <Cognition> Do I setup like 3 liabilities, 3 expenses (for splitting profits) and 3 assets or what?
07:31:18 <Cognition> ummmm, anyone alive?
07:37:17 <Jaran|zZZZzz> can take a while for someone to answer :)
07:37:26 <Jaran|zZZZzz> just ask and wait :p
07:39:36 <Cognition> sure of course :) It's great of'em to dedicate their time to helping others in the first place.
07:40:13 <Jaran|zZZZzz> indeed :)
