02:07:55 <sherrytmk> anyone can tell me how to install financial quote??
02:08:57 <p0troast> I don't know what that is. Can you provide some context?

02:13:08 <sherrytmk> and what i read from the help is i need to install a financial quote module

03:07:58 <p0troast> Ah, Finance::Quote?
03:08:25 <p0troast> Can you say kind of computer you have? Or what operating system you run?
03:10:31 <sherrytmk> im running windows xp
03:10:58 <sherrytmk> acer travelmate 370 intel centrino
03:13:53 <p0troast> Do you have Perl installed on your Windows XP machine?
03:15:15 <sherrytmk> no
03:15:22 <sherrytmk> where to get it?
03:17:52 <p0troast> http://www.activestate.com
03:18:17 <p0troast> Installing Perl on a Windows machine is a little beyond my knowledge set, but that's your starting point.
03:19:26 <p0troast> More specifically, you can download ActiveState Perl from http://www.activestate.com/store/productdetail.aspx?prdGuid=81fbce82-6bd5-49bc-a915-08d58c2648ca
03:19:36 *** StocksR has joined #gnucash
03:19:47 *** StocksR has left #gnucash
03:19:53 <p0troast> You'll want to click the "Download" link for the "Active Perl" standard distribution product.
03:21:40 <p0troast> And then make sure you download the appropriate Windows package. I would imagine the "Windows (x86) MSI" package would be most appropriate for you.
03:26:44 <sherrytmk> version 5.10?
03:28:21 <p0troast> Good question. I think so.
03:28:41 <p0troast> I would be surprised if it were the other version, 5.8
03:29:30 <p0troast> I'm wrong
03:29:33 <p0troast> 5.8.
03:29:36 <p0troast> http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Windows#Finance::Quote
03:32:26 <sherrytmk> oh great! u've been very helpful to me, thanks a lot
03:32:51 <sherrytmk> i will try it out myself once the download is finish...
03:33:03 <sherrytmk> any problem i will get back to u again
03:33:08 <sherrytmk> thanks again!
03:34:02 <p0troast> Sure.
03:47:24 <sherrytmk> another question, how to update my GnuCash to latest version? do i need to uninstall the previous version first?
03:57:01 <romkyns> sherrytmk: I've upgraded 2.2.4 to 2.2.5 yesterday by simply closing the old version and running the installer. It doesn't say anywhere that it's "upgrading" but it Just Worked.
03:57:38 <sherrytmk> rom, thanks for your info
03:57:40 <sherrytmk> :)
03:58:33 <romkyns> np
04:10:56 <sherrytmk> p0troast, already installed the active perl, what should i do next?

09:42:20 <warlord> hi Rolf
09:43:03 <Rolf> Hey
09:43:34 <Rolf> I think I am slowly getting a better grasp on gnucash and it can actually be made to function with our German bookkeeping peculiarities
09:43:42 <Rolf> and how it can
09:43:59 <Rolf> warlord: Can you grant me rw access to po/?
09:44:08 <Rolf> or at least po/de.po?
09:44:54 <warlord> I thought you had access to there?
09:45:32 <warlord> OH. Sorry, you have access to accounts
09:45:54 <warlord> CStim owns the translation, so if HE says it's okay then I can grant you access to po
09:47:35 <Rolf> only to accounts/de_DE so far
09:48:00 <Rolf> Let's see when he comes back around
09:48:09 <Rolf> ~seen cstim
09:48:23 <Rolf> #gnucash lacks in bots ;-)
09:48:41 <jsled> @seen cstim
09:48:41 <gncbot> jsled: cstim was last seen in #gnucash 19 weeks, 2 days, 16 hours, 18 minutes, and 1 second ago: <cstim> see ya
09:48:54 <jsled> He stopped hanging around #gnucash a while ago.
09:49:10 <Rolf> ah, doing things right seems to help, too ;-)
09:49:30 <jsled> I'd mail him.
09:50:08 <Rolf> yes
10:02:41 <Rolf> warlord: Is the patch in 144669 a go from you?
10:05:41 <warlord> * looking *
10:55:21 *** kling0n_ has quit IRC
12:26:45 *** fell has joined #gnucash
12:39:13 <warlord> Rolf: Sure, that patch looks okay. Note that it wont change the QuickFill.
12:40:47 <Rolf> what is quickfill?
12:41:19 <warlord> when you type a few letters and it suggests the completion?
13:05:17 *** kling0n has joined #gnucash
13:05:58 *** Demitar has quit IRC
13:23:30 <Rolf> oh, the type-ahead thing that I mentioned in the bug report?
13:23:46 <Rolf> That would certainly be nice, but basically only icing on the cake
13:24:03 <warlord> right.

14:55:28 <warlord> (sorry, had to reset my router unexpectedly)
14:55:35 *** jsled sets mode: +o gncbot
14:55:40 <warlord> @op
14:55:40 *** gncbot sets mode: +o warlord

15:41:17 <Rolf> How do I test out the sql backend?
15:41:24 <Rolf> I don't see anything in the wiki
15:41:29 <warlord> gda-dev2 branch
15:41:40 <Rolf> oh, a different branch
15:41:47 <warlord> umm... yeah....
15:42:14 <warlord> it's not finished yet, so it's being worked on in a branch to make sure it doesn't break anything else.
15:42:38 <Rolf> Does the same thing apply to the hbco/aqbanking stuff?
15:42:46 <Rolf> I just saw there is a branch for that, woot
15:42:47 <Rolf> too
15:43:00 <Rolf> I tought that was already in trunk
15:43:27 <Rolf> IOW, I can't have both hbci and sql at the same time, right now, correct?
15:44:36 <warlord> correct.
15:44:44 <warlord> (and yes - aqb3 is on a branch)
16:07:47 *** sjc has joined #gnucash
16:29:39 <Rolf> What am I supposed to make of this: http://rafb.net/p/fHdTHs27.html ?
16:31:26 <warlord> um, you changed your version of intltoolize on your system?
16:31:31 <warlord> start with a clean SVN checkout.
16:31:57 <Rolf> I just checked this tree out five minutes ago
16:35:13 <warlord> why are you running --force with autogen?
16:37:00 <Rolf> because it told me to do so
16:37:10 <Rolf> I tried first without --force
16:37:18 <Rolf> I am doing another checkout now
16:40:14 <warlord> ok
16:40:23 <warlord> What Distro are you using?
16:41:11 <Rolf> ubuntu hardy
16:41:20 <Rolf> for whatever reason, it seems to be working better
16:41:22 <Rolf> now
16:41:32 <warlord> ok.
16:41:42 <Rolf> First, I had it in $gnucash-srcpath/unstable
16:41:59 <Rolf> now it is in unstable/
16:42:10 <Rolf> parallel to $gnucash-srcpath/
16:42:18 <Rolf> maybe it did not like that
16:43:23 <warlord> ??
16:44:27 *** fell has quit IRC
16:47:34 <Rolf> just a thought
16:47:47 <Rolf> trunk is in /usr/src/gnucash
16:48:34 <Rolf> I had checked out the experimental stuff into /usr/src/gnucash/unstable
16:48:47 <Rolf> now it is /usr/src/gnucash-unstable
