07:32:31 <Z9N2hJJ8mFVUuLiF> I did not get such problems with 2.2.0
07:35:38 <Z9N2hJJ8mFVUuLiF> I then downloaded ORBit2-2.13.3 and then my GnuCash 2.2.1 can run again

14:04:57 <SDGathman> jsled, got gnucash-2.2.1 built for centos-5.0
14:05:48 <jsled> great! I don't know if you feel like updating <http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/RedHat>, but it might be useful
14:07:17 <SDGathman> Hmm, that page says use slib-3a3. I used slib-3a1. Seems to work, but...
14:07:54 <jsled> 3a1 is fine.
14:08:00 <jsled> 3a4 is the problematic version.
14:09:20 <SDGathman> Those instructions don't build an RPM. So maybe I have something to contribute.
14:12:06 <warlord> is the distributed SPECfile not sufficient?
14:12:19 <SDGathman> It is sufficient.
14:12:35 <SDGathman> Oh, you mean the one in gnucash. No.
14:12:48 <SDGathman> Needs some tweaking for Centos.
14:12:58 <SDGathman> Not much, though.
14:14:13 <warlord> how much tweaking? and can we tweak it so it continues to work on fedora, too?
14:14:23 <SDGathman> Actually, I didn't try the one that came with 2.2.1. I started with 2.0.5 spec, and then went to 2.2.1 because it didn't need g-wrap.
14:14:30 <warlord> AH...
14:14:42 <warlord> So we DONT know if the 2.2.1 distributed SPECfile works or not..
14:15:04 <SDGathman> Well, it names the release FCsomething.
14:15:14 <SDGathman> Does %{dist} work on Fedora?
14:16:01 <SDGathman> Needs slib dependency.
14:16:24 <warlord> I dont think %{dist} works.
14:17:10 <warlord> Ahh, i think that used to come from the g-wrap package.. Yeah, we should add an slib dep.
14:17:42 <SDGathman> Could parse %{dist} out of "uname -a" output.
14:18:02 <warlord> Eh? how?
14:18:09 <warlord> uname -a
14:18:09 <warlord> Linux pgpdev.ihtfp.org 2.6.22.2-57.bz250913.1.fc7 #1 SMP Fri Aug 17 18:31:03 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
14:18:28 <warlord> from the kernel name?
14:18:31 <SDGathman> pick up last work in kernel version.
14:18:42 <warlord> then might as well use uname -r:
14:18:44 <SDGathman> Although that gives el5xen in my case...
14:18:48 <warlord> 2.6.22.2-57.bz250913.1.fc7
14:19:03 <warlord> dont you have a 'redhat-release' package?
14:19:34 <SDGathman> I have a centos-release package.
14:19:46 <warlord> What do you get from: rpm -q --qf '%{VERSION}' --whatprovides redhat-release
14:22:05 <SDGathman> Don't have redhat-release. However,
14:22:05 <SDGathman> rpm -q --whatprovides centos-release
14:22:05 <SDGathman> centos-release-5-0.0.el5.centos.2
14:22:05 <SDGathman> centos-release-5-0.0.el5.centos.2
14:22:29 <warlord> Please run the command I provided and show me the output.
14:23:01 <SDGathman> Ok, "5".
14:23:27 <SDGathman> But I don't want to call the release FC5.
14:23:29 <warlord> Thank you. See, you DO have a package that "provides" redhat-release.
14:23:41 <warlord> Oh, i understand..
14:24:05 <SDGathman> The package should be binary compatible with real RedHat EL5.
14:24:49 <SDGathman> It is not a big deal to edit the release...
14:25:50 <warlord> Well, it's more that I'd like to have a SPECfile that works nearly everywhere... So you DONT have to edit anything.
14:26:15 <SDGathman> I think it should have a %define dist at the top, default to FC%{fc_rel}, and then compiler can edit the knobs all in one place.
14:26:59 <SDGathman> There are knobs for _with_ofx, etc already.
14:27:02 <warlord> Yeah, that would work.
14:27:09 *** andi5 has joined #gnucash
14:27:09 *** gncbot sets mode: +o andi5
14:28:55 <SDGathman> I'm going to try 2.2.1 provided spec file.
14:29:16 <SDGathman> I've gone through installed packages again, and made sure the el4 stuff is all gone ...
14:29:49 <SDGathman> I should use a pristine install, but I'm out of LVM space at the moment.
14:39:31 <SDGathman> spec doesn't require gnucash-docs.
14:47:34 <warlord> true, because it shouldn't require gnucash-docs.
14:53:15 <warlord> (you can run gnucash just fine without the docs installed)
14:53:34 <andi5> you cannot read docs, though
14:55:03 <warlord> Heh.
14:55:52 <andi5> warlord: once you asked about the general ledger bug.... no, chris and me did not fix it... we both were pretty unsure about how to fix it correctly without breaking other stuff
14:56:09 <warlord> Ah, okay.
14:56:51 *** Rolf has joined #gnucash
14:57:01 <chris> well, I think you were on the right track, andi5.
14:57:27 <andi5> chris: no chance, i will not try again ;-)
14:57:27 <chris> I'd just do it, and add some assertions to verify any assumptions. Then run with it for a while...
15:06:51 *** roxy_ has joined #gnucash
15:10:19 <warlord> Any objections to me applying the patch in http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116353#c7 to trunk prior to 2.2.2?
15:11:09 <jsled> nope, sounds good.
15:13:18 *** roxy_ has quit IRC
15:15:59 * andi5 will be back
15:16:09 *** andi5 has quit IRC
15:25:15 *** palatin has quit IRC
15:34:24 <SDGathman> I like having gnucash-ofx and gnucash-hbci as separate packages. Don't have to install aqbanking just to use gnucash.
15:38:51 <SDGathman> BTW, 2.2.1 spec file worked fine with the tweaks we talked about (dist and slib).
15:40:08 <warlord> cool.
15:40:17 <warlord> Can you file a bug report and attach your patch?

18:20:14 *** Zoolooc has quit IRC
18:20:45 <warlord> yes
18:20:48 <chris> Does gcc have a remote chance of working with Sun's ld, or is that a sure disaster?
18:20:51 <warlord> although I haven't used to very recently.
18:21:02 <warlord> Um.. it's certainly a WAY to disaster.
18:21:28 <jsled> heh
18:22:29 *** twunder has joined #gnucash
18:23:20 <chris> ok, sounds sufficiently bad to be worth avoiding.
18:27:45 <warlord> Yeah, usually.
18:40:39 *** tjanssen has quit IRC

20:52:47 <cornell> Hi everybody... been using Quicken for a long time, recently sworn off Windows, and have used kMyMoney, not real happy with it. I'm trying gnuCash.
20:54:20 <cornell> First, I downloaded a qif from my bank's online site. In the file, a deposit is recorded with T100.0 and a check (or whatever) is T-50.0. I imported it into gnucash.
20:55:17 <cornell> It seems backwards, my balance is negative. The checks are positive, as income, the deposits are negative, as charge.
20:55:20 <cornell> Is that right?
21:19:34 *** Rolf has quit IRC
21:58:22 *** twunder has quit IRC
22:09:57 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
22:10:25 <warlord> cornell: it all depends on how you imported it.
22:10:38 <warlord> What account you said the QIF is for..
22:10:44 <warlord> how you assigned the transactions..
22:10:55 <warlord> cornell: that's all to you
