05:58:06 <martin> hi, has someone a bit time to help me on compiling gwenhywfar 3.10.0 ? I run in errors during make
06:39:12 <micha> martin: what's the problem?
06:39:39 <martin> it seems my libgnutls-cflag variable is wrong
06:39:51 <martin> i got the message:
06:40:08 <martin> ccl: /usr/include/gnutls/: no such file or directory
06:40:20 <martin> i tried it with /usr/include too, same problem
06:41:02 <micha> do you have the development files for gnutls installed on your system?
06:41:16 <martin> i installed gnutls-devel too yes
06:41:29 <martin> I'm on a redhat system :/
06:41:51 <micha> then, where does gnutls-devel install its header files to?
06:42:04 <martin> good question, i will take a look
06:43:10 <micha> do you have pkg-config installed on your system? If yes: do you get anything useful by running "pkg-config --cflags gnutls"
06:43:39 <martin> in /usr/include/gnutls i have a gnutls.h
06:44:27 <micha> then why does it say "no such file or directory" above?
06:44:28 <martin> "pkg-config --cflags gnutls" gives me the message that gnutls was not found in the pkg-config search path....
06:44:53 <martin> this message occured on ./configure too, thats why I set two variables by hand
06:45:28 <martin> LIBGNUTLS_LIBS and LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS
06:45:39 <micha> how does your call to ./configure look like?
06:45:50 <martin> simply ./configure :)
06:46:42 <micha> and what's in LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS/LIBGNUTLS_LIBS?
06:48:34 <martin> i used "libgnutls-config --cflag" and "... --libs"
06:48:42 <martin> they give me some path
06:48:49 <martin> cflag: /usr/include
06:48:54 <martin> libs: /usr/libs
06:49:08 <martin> which i set to LIBGNUTLS_LIBS and LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS
06:49:37 <martin> after that the ./configure doesnt message me about the missing gnutls and runs fine
06:54:55 <micha> can you paste the entire error message somewhere?
06:56:51 <martin> http://nopaste.info/4b30b420e2.html
06:57:26 <martin> i done whats in line 10-11
06:58:00 <micha> no, the other error with "no such file or directory"
06:58:15 <martin> oh ok :) mom
06:59:43 <martin> http://nopaste.com/p/aXMYeV4uT
07:05:35 <micha> what's *exactly* in your LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS?
07:05:45 <micha> and LIBGNUTLS_LIBS
07:07:05 <micha> it should be "LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/gnutls" and "LIBGNUTLS=LIBS=-lgnutls"
07:07:13 <micha> or something similar
07:07:18 <martin> i used: "export LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS=/usr/include/gnutls/" and "export LIBGNUTLS_LIBS=/usr/lib"
07:07:41 <martin> so i forget the -l in front of the path?
07:07:51 <micha> CFLAGS are flags passed to the compiler
07:08:10 <micha> -I adds an include path to the compiler, hence '-I/usr/include/gnutls'
07:08:37 <micha> with LIBS you pass linker options to the compiler
07:09:37 <micha> -l links the specified library (in this case "gnutls") -- here the pure library name only is what the compiler expects
07:10:52 <martin> ah ok
07:10:54 <martin> -l is L lower case right?
07:11:02 <martin> l for linking
07:11:26 <martin> or upper i ?
07:12:31 <micha> RTFM
07:12:40 <micha> -l is for specifying the library name
07:13:10 <micha> -L is for specifying additional paths to search for libraries
07:13:41 <martin> ok, sorry i am simply not familiar with compiling :/
07:14:55 <micha> yes, no problem. GCC docs are available here: http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/
07:15:23 <martin> thank you for your help, the make fails now much later on an syntax error, looks like I have to ask directly the gwenhwyfar developer
07:15:41 <martin> thank you for your patience
07:15:43 <micha> what fails it on now?
07:15:52 <martin> io_tls_p.h:34: error: syntax error before "gnutls_session_t"
07:16:21 <micha> what version of gnutls?
07:17:18 <martin> 1.0.20
07:17:29 <micha> way to old
07:17:43 <martin> :/ my redhat say it is up to date
07:17:57 <martin> i am much more familiar with debian
07:18:05 * micha to *g*
07:18:10 <micha> too
07:18:33 <martin> ok, i will look how to update gnutls without destroying the productivity system :/
07:19:45 <micha> I suggest compiling/installing a recent GnuTLS from source first (suggestion: use ./configure --prefix=/usr/local for your self-compiled projects)
07:20:08 <martin> hm.... ok, i will try it
07:20:44 <micha> ofcourse you will need to adapt LIBGNUTLS_LIBS and LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS when compiling Gwenhywfar later
07:21:00 <micha> good luck. I'm leaving
07:21:08 <martin> thanks, have a nice day!

17:03:05 <tj_> anyone here?
17:03:16 <jsled> tj_: please don't meta ask, just ask. :)
17:03:39 <tj_> lol... ok... GnuCash.. can it be ran from terminal?
17:03:55 <jsled> started, yes, but it's a GUI application.
17:04:06 <jsled> gtk, specifically.
17:04:09 <tj_> oh.........
17:04:11 <tj_> eh
17:04:22 <jsled> there is a 'cashutil' project, but I don't know if it's still compatible with the current gnucash sources.
17:04:37 <tj_> i need something that can be ran from a shell
17:04:49 <tj_> so my trucks can SSH into my server... and load it
17:05:10 <jsled> 'ledger' comes to mind.
17:05:21 <tj_> its personal though
17:05:24 <tj_> already looked into it
17:06:27 <jsled> another option might be to write your own command-line (or whatever might even be more appropriate) interface that links against the gnucash engine and util libraries, and modifies the books directly.
17:06:51 <tj_> cool

22:24:03 <Michael1> I create a new account file and save it to c:\cashfile\1111.
22:24:03 <Michael1> When I Ctrl + O to open file. When I choice c:\cashfile\1111 this file.
22:24:03 <Michael1> I got a error message.
