02:21:14 <opalepatrick> HI there, I have just a mchine from free 2010.0 to 2010.1 and it has installed a horrible theme (is it Galaxy?) Any ideas how to change it as there doesnt appear to be any other option in the menus
02:21:46 <opalepatrick> updated a machine*
02:23:42 <opalepatrick> wrong channel again
02:45:04 <kimmo> hehe

04:24:51 *** kortsi has joined #gnucash
04:34:28 <kortsi> I've been testing the 2.3.14 and ran into an assertion failure. I wonder if I should report this somewhere? For some reason entering a stock transaction leaves the accounts in an odd state, where looking at the stock account I can see the values, but in the bank account, all values are empty.
04:34:43 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
04:34:54 <warlord> kortsi: What's the parent account of the stock account?
04:36:08 <kortsi> it is an Asset account
04:36:49 <warlord> With what currency?
04:37:03 <warlord> And what's the "assertion failure"?
04:37:26 <kortsi> The currency seems to be EUR
04:37:38 <kortsi> The stock transaction is in USD - is that incompatible?
04:37:42 <warlord> Yep
04:37:49 <kortsi> So that's it then
04:37:57 <kortsi> * 11:19:38 CRIT <gnc.engine> xaccSplitSetValue: assertion `gnc_numeric_check(amt) == GNC_ERROR_OK' failed
04:38:05 <kortsi> That's the assertion failure
04:38:39 <warlord> Could be. The parent account of the stock must be in the currency of your stock transactions.
04:39:25 <kortsi> All right. So I need to create one Asset parent account for USD denominated stocks and one for EUR stocks?
04:39:40 <warlord> Yes. And shift around the stocks accordingly.
04:40:03 <kortsi> Great, this clears it up for me. Thanks :)
04:44:39 <warlord> you're welcome.
04:44:41 <warlord> Does that work?
04:51:15 <kortsi> I'm just trying it out. Somehow I still get empty transactions in the bank account. But I probably need to check that all accounts really are USD.
04:55:09 <kortsi> I had to delete all the old transactions and start fresh. Now it looks ok...
05:08:15 *** ecolitan has quit IRC
05:09:06 <warlord> Yeah, it only grabs the currency in new transactions.
05:09:11 <warlord> Anyways, I gotta run! TTFN

08:57:27 <kimmo> same here
08:57:40 <mib_spjmos> did you install the online price retrieval yet
08:57:46 <Askarii> no
08:57:48 <kimmo> (No, I don't use online proce retrieval at all, I value my holdings at purchase price)
08:58:01 <Askarii> voila
08:58:21 <mib_spjmos> i am also not technically in the program
08:58:35 <mib_spjmos> i wanted to use two curriences
08:58:51 <mib_spjmos> i want to use the us dollar and the korean won

09:07:43 <kimmo> I used to have different currencies in my gc, but it was too troublesome
09:08:51 *** raleightile has joined #gnucash
09:09:38 <raleightile> anyone deal with subcontracted labor in gnucash?
09:12:33 <mib_spjmos> what was troublesome about them
09:17:14 <mib_spjmos> i am just starting with gnucash and i am still trying to set it up
09:19:59 <raleightile> I was just wondering if it was appropriate, if I sell a piece of carpet for say $400 and the labor is $100
09:20:35 <raleightile> to put on the invoice Carpet / Income:Sales Labor / Liabilities:Labor
09:21:24 <raleightile> Then when the piece is installed pay from the check book Asset:Current Asset:Checking / Liabilities:Labor
09:22:25 <raleightile> because we report the labor as 1099 income to the subcontractors, and it is not part of sales tax, and at the end of the year need to track how much was paid out
09:22:54 <raleightile> I didn't know if that was a proper use of gnucash / double entry accounting
09:26:10 <mib_spjmos> i am sorry but i can not help you because i do not know how to use gnucash yet
09:27:47 <mib_spjmos> still in the learn of the program stage
09:32:11 <raleightile> ok
09:32:16 <raleightile> thanks though
09:32:22 <raleightile> I'll wait for jsled or warlord

11:17:33 <opalepatrick> Hi just installed 2010.1 free version but cannot get past logon as after I put in user and pass it says that I need to install glxinfo. When I go to do that it cannot find it and asks me to make it available. Stuck, any way to get it installed using rescur or something like that

14:16:21 <piropiro> hello, is gnc-fq-helper currently working?
14:16:30 <piropiro> $ echo '(currency "USD" "GBP")' | gnc-fq-helper
14:16:39 <piropiro> returns: Parsing of undecoded UTF-8 will give garbage when decoding entities at /usr/share/perl5/Finance/Quote.pm line 243, <> line 1.
14:16:39 <piropiro> (#f)
14:21:37 <piropiro> np: gnc-fq-update fixed the problem
14:28:33 <piropiro> uhm... this is amazingly wrong:
14:28:36 <piropiro> $ echo '(currency "HKD" "GBP")' | gnc-fq-helper
14:28:36 <piropiro> (("HKD" (symbol . "HKD") (last . 8.2022) (currency . "GBP")))
14:28:42 <piropiro> $ echo '(currency "GBP" "HKD")' | gnc-fq-helper
14:28:43 <piropiro> (("GBP" (symbol . "GBP") (last . 12.192) (currency . "HKD")))
14:29:31 <piropiro> "HKD" "GBP" ratio should be < 0, e.g. "USD" "GBP" is
14:30:00 <piropiro> I have to log out, I'll read an eventual answer in the logs
14:30:07 <piropiro> have a nice weekend everybody.
