02:25:15 <Pupeno> What type of account do you use to keep record of money you own to somebody else?

02:30:49 <jsled> yup.

08:35:24 <Rolf> jsled: Are you using git for branch support?
08:35:30 <Rolf> Anybody else using git?
08:36:07 <Rolf> I am trying to get a merged tree with both aqbanking3 and gda-dev2

14:06:41 <hardwire> hai
14:08:13 <jsled> hello
14:08:19 <hardwire> fancy meeting you here.
14:08:24 <jsled> heh.
14:08:44 <hardwire> I see you were't lying.. we're off to a good start.
14:09:21 <hardwire> I'm actually just trying to get the hang of double entry accounting.
14:09:27 <hardwire> Having no experience accounting at all as it is.
14:09:48 <jsled> Did you read the tutorial and concepts guide?
14:09:49 <hardwire> I won't bother you guys with questions about it, but I didn't know if any of you consult to set up gnucash.
14:10:09 <hardwire> jsled: nope, not yet... It'll be a good start when I get some alone time.
14:10:22 <jsled> yeah, it has a pretty good tutorial of double-entry.
14:10:26 <hardwire> ok good
14:10:39 <hardwire> I'm just getting a sole proprietorship up and working, need invoicing.
14:10:51 <hardwire> i was hoping gnucash-sql would be in ubuntu.
14:10:56 <hardwire> sigh.. :|
14:11:16 <jsled> Also the app does have some default account hierarchies, which are useful. And template business accounts.
14:11:25 <jsled> The SQL backend is long-ago deprecated.
14:11:26 <hardwire> I use unison and svn to sync stuff to my workstation, I'll probably end up putting the gnucash db in svn.
14:11:34 <hardwire> so no more sql?
14:11:43 <hardwire> is there some sort of network ability at all?
14:11:45 <jsled> gnucash has never used SQL.
14:12:04 <jsled> Well, never primarily used the SQL backend.
14:12:23 <jsled> There's no client/server support; a network-shared datafile is a possibility. But it's still serialized access.
14:12:26 <jsled> (to the datafile)\
14:12:41 <hardwire> locked to a single client, gotcha
14:14:10 <hardwire> as it is now I just run encfssh and then gnucash. It works well for just me.
14:15:36 <hardwire> I'm hoping to figure out a bit more of how GnuCash interracts with external data sources
14:16:10 <hardwire> I have my vehicle set up to sync it's GPS logs with my house, and I will eventually be able to highlight mileage for work related things according to an invoice.. I hope.
14:16:42 <hardwire> I'm guessing I'll need to lock the database file and write new results to it outside of gnucash's interface
14:17:15 <jsled> Another option is to convert your data into QIF-formatted transactions, then import them.
14:17:33 <hardwire> this is why I was hoping SQL support was alive and kicking :)
14:17:58 <jsled> Ah. Well, touching the database is still invalidating your (non-existant) warranty.
14:18:15 <hardwire> I'd never admit to that anyways.
14:18:24 <jsled> heh.
14:19:29 <hardwire> no OFX online either, right?
14:19:57 <jsled> not in debian or ubuntu. There is DirectConnect support, but you need to build it yourself.
14:20:02 <hardwire> woot
14:20:05 <jsled> (or use a distro that will let you do that.)
14:20:25 <jsled> (or use a distro that just ignores the silly license incompatability)
14:20:47 <hardwire> I can't stand anything else.. so debian it is :)
14:21:34 <hardwire> if you want to promote gnucash in the ubuntu sector, I can help set up a repo
14:21:54 <hardwire> and some build stuff.
14:22:11 <jsled> hardwire: see http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Ubuntu if you've not already.
14:22:18 <hardwire> I have not already
14:24:02 <jsled> If you want to setup a repo, more power to you. Be advised that there is a real license incompatibility, so someone might try to act against your distribution of an OFX-enabled build.
14:24:24 <jsled> I have no idea who, since every party concerned does not object to the problem.

14:25:52 <hardwire> jsled: meh.. if I end up using gnucash a lot I may
14:26:51 <hardwire> I didn't mean to dredge up a bunch of issues :)
14:28:12 <Rolf> But the hbci stuff is being resolved currently, isn't it?
14:28:18 <Rolf> man aqbanking3
14:28:27 <Rolf> man aqbanking3 branch
14:29:03 <Rolf> builds fine here and works fine, too
