13:28:45 <smarties123> hello, I'm trying to build gnucash on windows7 and I ran in to a problem with the git build script, it expects a bzip2 file for wget which does not exist.
13:29:00 *** uXus has quit IRC
13:29:10 <warlord> smarties123: are you attempting to do development?
13:29:21 <warlord> (I'm wondering why you're trying to build the win32 version)
13:29:29 <smarties123> yes, but havent' got that far yet
13:30:10 <smarties123> just trying to follow the build instuctions off the gnucash page for windows
13:31:54 <smarties123> here is what I see:
13:31:59 <smarties123> $ install.sh | tee /c/soft/Build.txt
13:32:17 <smarties123> Wget
13:32:18 <smarties123> #################
13:32:25 <smarties123> #############
13:32:45 <smarties123> bzip2: <stdin> is not a bzip2 file
13:33:30 <smarties123> the wget file that is available for downloading is a .lzma file
13:33:52 <smarties123> I'm wondering where to look ...seems like abug in the build script.
13:36:10 *** john_ has joined #gnucash
13:36:11 *** gncbot sets mode: +o john_
13:46:53 <warlord> Or the dependency went away
13:49:31 <warlord> There's been discussion of hosting our own dependencies so we're not depending on third parties keeping old zipfiles around.
13:52:43 <smarties123> The files all seem to match the web instuctions (version and name)
13:53:55 <smarties123> The instructions were updated very recently, that's why I am surpised at such an obvious error
13:55:08 <smarties123> maybe my best bet would be to contact the person who made the updates...not sure how I would find out who it was though.
13:56:27 <warlord> "history"
13:57:31 <warlord> are you sure there's not a bzip2 file available in the same directory as the lzma file?
13:57:31 <smarties123> I found the user "Gjanssens" but that's where I get stuck...its red and has no link
13:57:44 <warlord> that is Geert
13:57:49 <smarties123> nope. only lzma files.
14:03:02 *** john_ has quit IRC
14:03:59 <warlord> From where did you download the wget package?
14:04:42 <warlord> (looking at a slightly older version of install-inst -- it doesn't download wget; it just expects it to be there.
14:06:22 <warlord> Okay, updated to recent SVN, and inst_wget is still just looking for wget*.tar.bz2
14:07:17 <warlord> it expects it to already be in place.
14:07:32 <smarties123> from what I understand they were going from svn to git
14:07:52 <smarties123> so. I'm using the git default.sh
14:08:57 <smarties123> heres the text from the web page for ref:
14:09:02 <smarties123> Download the "wget" package from https://sourceforge.net/downloads/mingw -> MSYS -> Extension -> wget -> wget-1.12-1 -> wget-
14:09:18 <smarties123> 1.12-1-msys-1.0.13-bin.tar.lzma Direct download link and place the downloaded file in the $DOWNLOAD_DIR in defaults.sh
14:10:56 <smarties123> and, i'm running c/soft/gnucash/repos/packaging/win32/default.sh
14:15:37 <smarties123> okay, I see the function in install-impl.sh 'inst_wget()' as you mentioned.
14:15:59 <warlord> SVN is still canonical.
14:16:36 <smarties123> I think they are just doing the wrong file name...I'll try changing it.
14:17:20 <warlord> If that doesn't work you might want to file a bug report.
14:19:02 <smarties123> Is there a simple email address I can send it to?
14:19:25 <warlord> you can try gnucash-devel, but filing in Bugzilla is better
14:21:18 <smarties123> Not to be a complainer, but it seems like a lot of figuring out for me as a user to just report a problem to the person who worked on it... I'll see if my old buzzilla account stil works.
14:22:00 <smarties123> and.. thanks for your help!
14:34:08 <warlord> like I said, you could try emailing gnucash-devel.
14:39:20 <bootjgfx> Anything could happen in the next 90 minutes [bookmark] http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/Musopen/open-source-bug-tracking
14:40:18 <warlord> bootjgfx: WTF?
