05:14:41 <tg> hi!
05:20:28 <tg> I want to try the new database-backend, did a 2.3.10 tarball build on opensuse 11.2 with --enable-dbi and --with-test-mysql-url . In file dialogs there is a pull down to choose backends, but there are no entries in it other then xml. Any hints where to look? Configure and make did not complain.
06:05:41 <tg> ok, i got it. --with-dbi-dbd-dir did the trick. thx for doing gnucash, great job.

11:36:51 <b0z0> Hi. Got a questions about the automatic currency quotes update. I created an account whose currency is Danish Kroner (DKK). My base currency is USD. The automatic currency quote system seems to get a rate of 1USD = 18.XXX DKK which is way off what it should be. It should be 1 USD = ~ 5 DKK. Am I doing something wrong? Where are the currency quotes taken from?

14:09:48 <twann796> how do I make a thick line between transactions in an account
14:13:07 <jsled> as a side-effect of post-dating transaction.
14:13:22 <jsled> future transactions will be offset by a thick blue line.
14:15:39 <twann796> post-dating transaction ??
14:16:00 <jsled> er … just setting it's date to the future.
14:16:07 <jsled> s/it's/its/
14:17:09 <twann796> oh ok, ;)
14:17:48 <twann796> but can I do something to mark transactions, like color change?
14:17:54 <jsled> no

14:26:04 <cfp> a few questions on programatic generation of splits: 1) does a positive value/amount always correspond to a positive total value in the account, so e.g. a positive split in an expense account means an expense? 2) for currency acounts am i right in thinking i should set both amount and value to the same quantity?
14:26:34 <cfp> 3) when adding new splits in code does it do the same thing as when adding new splits in the gui, e.g. it creates a new split to an "Impalance" account in order to preserve balance?
14:26:37 <cfp> thanks in advance

16:35:47 <cfp> does a split have to be in a lot? i'm trying to add splits programmatically, and they are appearing on the right transaction, but they don't seem to be getting any values associated with them
16:36:45 <cfp> i'm calling xaccSplitSetAmount and xaccSplitSetValue on each of them
16:42:11 <cfp> hmm actually maybe it's just that double_to_gnc_numeric isn't working as expected
