06:27:03 <jul> Hi everyone, I would like to change the currency of an account. Is it possible to do this, and apply an exchange rate on all past transactions of this account in order to reflect the reality according to that currency?
06:28:26 <jul> When I edit the currency of an account, it only tells that the past transactions were done in that new currency without implying that itwas done in the old currency (no exchange rate applied)
06:34:30 *** bpburns has quit IRC
07:50:42 <gjanssens> jul: the only way I could do that was to
07:50:58 <gjanssens> - define an exchange rate
07:51:14 <gjanssens> - re-enter each transaction value
07:51:25 <gjanssens> (no need to re-enter the complete transaction
07:51:27 <gjanssens> )
07:51:41 <gjanssens> I didn't try step one actually
07:52:12 <gjanssens> I used the right-mouse button to set an exchange rate on the transaction I tested
07:52:18 <gjanssens> to ymmv
07:52:25 <gjanssens> Bleh,
07:52:28 <gjanssens> so ymmv
07:52:48 <gjanssens> got to go for some time...

09:51:56 *** jul has joined #gnucash
10:02:13 <warlord> jul: you'll need to edit each txn, most likely right-clicking and applying an exchange rate to each one.
10:27:31 <gjanssens> warlord: good morning
10:27:45 <gjanssens> in my test, only applying an exchange rate wasn't sufficient
10:28:00 <gjanssens> I also had to re-enter the amount explicitly
10:28:18 <gjanssens> perhaps any change to the transaction would be sufficient to redo the numbers though

10:35:07 *** ErKa has joined #gnucash
11:18:12 <warlord> gjanssens: I dont think so -- I think you are right that you need to both apply the exch rate *and* modify the amount.

12:48:30 <john> gjanssens: Geert, I noticed what looks like a flaw in your plan to run the migration script at every startup. It seems that every time I start 2.5.6 I get the file that I last opened with 2.5.5, not the one I last opened.
12:49:12 *** jul has quit IRC
12:49:32 <warlord> Hmm.. Maybe the migration should only run if gsettings has something. Maybe a "gsettings_migration_has_run" gsetting?
12:49:36 <gjanssens> john, that's indeed a flaw
12:49:48 <gjanssens> I don't intend to keep it this way
12:50:16 <gjanssens> Only for the 2.5.6 release, because I will do modifications to the migration scripts still
12:50:27 <gjanssens> And I wanted to be sure that on 2.5.7 the migration would run at least once
12:50:49 <gjanssens> My plan was indeed to work with a switch as warlord suggests
12:51:13 <gjanssens> I only wanted to install it once the migration is verified to be stable
12:51:38 <gjanssens> You are right that currently your old settings get overwritten each time
12:51:55 <gjanssens> The way to work around is like you suggested in the release notes
12:52:05 <gjanssens> move the .gconf dir out of the way
12:52:10 <gjanssens> while running 2.5.6
12:52:57 <john> OK.
12:59:52 <john> Dang. I had a problem loading gnucash main in the bundle. I thought I'd fixed it, but it's not working this morning. Guile complains that it can't find libgnc-core-utils.
