05:33:35 <micha> Hi andi5: Where is the code for importing AqBanking transactions located?
05:33:36 <micha> http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=492799
05:34:49 <andi5> http://svn.gnucash.org/trac/browser/gnucash/trunk/src/import-export/aqbanking/gnc-ab-utils.c#L508 and in txn_transaction_cb()
05:34:58 <micha> thanks
05:38:17 <andi5> see http://svn.gnucash.org/trac/browser/gnucash/trunk/src/import-export/aqbanking/gnc-ab-utils.c#L285 ... for the description
05:40:54 <micha> hmm, I can't see an error here.
05:42:11 <micha> line 245 looks fishy: ab_remote_name = AB_Transaction_GetPurpose(ab_trans);
05:42:49 <andi5> maybe
05:43:17 <micha> I assume a copy&paste bug ;)
05:43:20 <andi5> sure
05:43:25 <andi5> feel free to find others :)
05:44:01 <micha> hehe :)
05:44:35 <andi5> 2.2.6 is delaying thanks to holy libtool doing semi-compatible version jumps again... *grrr*
05:44:56 <andi5> gnc simply does not build on windows right now
05:46:55 <micha> So the available tarballs are not 2.2.6 yet?
05:47:54 <andi5> probably... they have not been announced yet, so everybody using them does it on his own... nonetheless, i will not save them there anymore
05:48:34 <micha> huh
05:49:11 <micha> I've just told Thomas about the available gnucash 2.2.6
05:49:14 <andi5> normally, these files were used for the announcement as well, so this never was a problem
05:49:17 * micha is going to correct that
05:49:24 <andi5> you saw a tarball, that is all
05:49:44 <andi5> but i understand that this is going to produce confusion
05:50:07 <andi5> sorry for that
05:50:30 <andi5> well, i do not know whether that makes any difference, but the tarball worked great for me on ubuntu
05:52:20 <micha> in the end it wouldn't hurt that much: Debian doesn't try to build packages for windows right now *g*
05:59:37 <micha> a suggested fix for Debian's #492799: http://pastebin.ch/351
05:59:57 <andi5> yes... does it work?
06:00:13 <micha> compile has not finished yet
06:00:18 <andi5> ok
06:10:36 *** warlord-afk has quit IRC
06:20:21 *** merc has joined #gnucash
06:20:37 <merc> Hey how do I get a Profit & Loss statement?
06:20:39 <merc> I can't find it
06:20:46 <merc> My accountant wants it :-D
06:22:00 <andi5> what version of gnucash?
06:22:00 <merc> 2.2.4
06:22:00 <andi5> http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_What_happened_to_my_Profit_and_Loss_report_when_I_upgraded_to_2.0.3F
06:23:58 <merc> If my financial year ends on the 30th of June, Shall I close the book on the 1st of July?
06:24:10 <merc> I notice that reports seem to be getting confused by the equity entry
06:30:51 *** warlord has joined #gnucash
06:30:52 *** gncbot sets mode: +o warlord
06:31:30 <micha> I got a compile error (actually a warning handled as error)... fixing...
06:32:42 <merc> Hey warlord...
06:32:56 <merc> If my financial year ends on the 30th of June, Shall I close the book on
06:32:57 <merc> +the 1st of July?
06:33:10 <merc> I notice that reports seem to be getting confused by the equity (book closing) entries
06:33:53 <warlord> No, you should close them on 30 June.. But reports on your "closed" period will then fail, but reports in the still open period should still work.
06:34:48 <merc> warlord: ah! OK
06:35:10 <merc> This means that if you have to run an old report, you're in trouble... right? (not that it's a huge proble, just aking sure I get it)
06:35:30 <warlord> yep. "backup your datafile before closing them"
06:35:39 <merc> OK
06:36:32 <merc> I aso have a naughty question. My business had "prior debts". I am paying people back, but that shouldn't qualify as a tax expense. What kind of item shall I use, so that I still pay tax on it?
06:36:58 <warlord> I'm afraid I have no idea.
06:38:01 <merc> OK sorry. I know I shoudn't have
06:38:02 <merc> asked
06:38:04 <merc> :-D
06:40:14 <merc> A tax account shouldn't be flagged as "tax related" because it's not an expenses you can deduct on tax... right?
06:40:31 <warlord> I dont know.
06:40:41 <micha> confirming: http://pastebin.ch/351 really does fix Debian's #492799
06:40:46 <warlord> The cost of tax preparation is certainly tax deductable in the US
06:41:09 <merc> Oh I know, I meant the "state tax"... you know, to keep the compny in good standing...
06:42:10 <warlord> I'm afraid I dont know -- you should ask your accountant. ;)
06:42:24 <merc> OK --- s o r r y :-D
06:42:54 <merc> Is there anything Free Software Magazine can do to help GNUCash?
06:44:22 <warlord> Ummm... find us more developers? ;)
06:47:36 <merc> What skills?
06:47:51 <merc> I was thinking about a developer/project matching system
06:48:30 <warlord> umm..
06:48:42 <warlord> C/Scheme
06:48:48 <warlord> (and gtk/glade)
06:51:09 <warlord> oh, and willingness to work within the existing framework. There is a pretty steep learning curve.
06:51:39 <merc> Define existing framework...?
06:53:06 <warlord> hold on (in a meeting and need to pay attention/comment)
06:55:06 <merc> Please email me the info
06:55:14 <merc> merc followed by mobily1 and then .com
06:55:15 <merc> OK?
06:55:16 <merc> I have to run
06:55:23 <merc> Haven't eaten all day...
06:55:31 <merc> see ya later

16:14:21 <andi5> hi nbinont
16:15:00 <nbinont> hi andi5
16:15:31 <nbinont> I'm still compiling things...
16:15:47 <andi5> i just wanted to do a quick compile, and now i am struggling with all sorts of update problems again... /me cries quietly
16:16:30 <nbinont> it's a bit hectic here too...had about 5 hours in bed since sunday morning
16:16:42 <andi5> oh wow...
16:16:51 <nbinont> mostly entirely unrelated to gnucash though
16:16:56 <andi5> phew :)
16:17:38 <andi5> does gnucash compile better now?
16:18:03 <andi5> (actually, i wanted to reboot to windows one and a half hours ago)...
16:18:24 <andi5> configure succeded... thank god, it is christmas
16:19:59 <nbinont> can't really say yet...I made a couple silly moves that made me blow away most of the install and start again
16:20:16 <andi5> :(
16:27:54 <nbinont> I copied aclocal.m4 and ltmain.sh from 2.2.5 and am trying that...I wasn't sure about the m4 files in macros (as I'm sure some are new), so I left them as is.
16:28:40 <andi5> the m4 macros are not used anymore, so i suppose you can ignore that file
16:29:22 <nbinont> ok
16:30:03 <andi5> i am not sure about ltmail.sh
16:30:06 <andi5> ltmain.sh, even
16:31:08 <nbinont> I'll see if this works, and if not, I may try building from svn (branches/2.2/) to make sure that there are no problems beyond the tarball (assuming that the problem lies there)
16:31:35 <andi5> i think that is a good idea... you might want to check out the ChangeLog file though
16:31:48 <nbinont> ok
16:32:20 <nbinont> I'll be offline for a few hours
16:32:20 <andi5> although... as long as there are no changes on the branch... anyway =)
16:32:31 <nbinont> ok
16:32:33 <andi5> ok then...
16:32:37 <andi5> see you

20:17:41 *** twunder has quit IRC
20:23:01 <merc> Warlord: OK, but what's a "normal" price? An accountant asked me for $6000/year... but my company is TINY!
20:23:15 <merc> That's an insane amount to me
20:23:16 <warlord> Whoa.
20:23:21 <warlord> Yeah, that's pretty insane.
20:23:39 <warlord> I pay like 12% of that
