11:08:29 <warlord> brian_: Two options: 1) don't close the report. 2) Save your settings as a Saved (Custom) Report

11:42:53 *** MechtiIde has joined #gnucash
11:46:39 <brian_> Whoa, this is amazing. I never tried custom reports before, there is a lot you can do here. Even better.

14:07:54 <mynick12345> Hi. I'm trying to change the language used by GNUcash. Editing the environment file doesn't seem to work. I have done all that I can with my google skills but can't find a solution. Any ideas what i can do? :)
14:09:46 <warlord> mynick12345: what OS/Distro? What version of GnuCash?
14:10:16 <mynick12345> Windows, 2.6.1
14:10:24 <mynick12345> windows 7, tahat is
14:10:27 <mynick12345> that*
14:13:29 <warlord> Okay, so what do those lines in your environment file look like?
14:14:44 <mynick12345> # If you wish GnuCash to use a different language, uncomment the two parameters # below and set LANG to your preferred locale LANG=sv_SE LANGUAGE={LANG}
14:15:01 <mynick12345> # If you wish GnuCash to use a different language, uncomment the two parameters
14:15:08 <mynick12345> # below and set LANG to your preferred locale
14:15:15 <mynick12345> LANG=sv_SE
14:15:21 <mynick12345> LANGUAGE={LANG}
14:19:24 <warlord> That should be all you need. What happens when you start GnuCash with that setting?
14:19:56 <mynick12345> Nothing at all. It just uses english as it did before i changed it.
14:20:51 <warlord> Check the contents of your tracefile?
14:21:52 <mynick12345> Where can i find that one?
14:22:06 <warlord> http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Trace_File (I think that's the URL)
14:22:47 <warlord> Try http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile
14:24:39 *** fell has quit IRC
14:27:41 <mynick12345> There are several of them. No one concerns the language, only style sheets that can't be found.
14:27:45 <mynick12345> For example:
14:27:46 <mynick12345> * 20:20:38 WARN <qof.engine> [guid_init()] only got 1827 bytes. The identifiers might not be very random. * 20:20:49 WARN <gnc.app-utils> Could not spawn perl: Failed to execute child process (No such file or directory) * 20:20:49 WARN <gnc.gui> Unable to read mtime for file C:\Users\Göran\Documents\Arvid\test\ekonomi\testarvagforening2.gnucash * 20:21:14
14:28:10 <warlord> Hmm... Nothing in there about locale?
14:28:40 * warlord doesn't actually use windows..
14:29:51 <mynick12345> Nope, nothing about locale
14:30:14 <mynick12345> Windows is quite horrible
14:32:19 <warlord> It is. Any reason you can't reinstall Linux?
14:33:16 *** jmd has quit IRC
14:33:44 <mynick12345> It's not my computer.
14:33:50 <warlord> Oh.
14:34:51 <brian_> virtualbox?
14:36:00 <warlord> mynick12345: what happens if you change the system locale to swedish? So the whole computer displays swedish? Will GnuCash display in swedish then?
14:37:41 <mynick12345> The system locale is already set to swedish.
14:40:33 <mynick12345> Are there any files where settings could be temporarily stored?
14:42:14 <warlord> No... GnuCash should default to the system locale unless you override it in environment. I don't understand why it's not working.
14:43:20 <mynick12345> Solution: do the accounting in english, then print all the reports from my own computer running linux
14:43:27 <warlord> heh.
14:43:29 <mynick12345> :P
14:43:44 <warlord> What if you just set it to 'sv' instead of 'sv_SE'?
14:44:53 <mynick12345> Doesn't work
14:46:22 <warlord> :( Sorry, I don't know what to tell you. Try asking on the gnucash-user mailing list?
14:47:58 <mynick12345> Hmm. It's not a huge deal to use it in english, it will do all the hard work for me anyway.
14:48:10 <mynick12345> Thank you for the help anyway!
14:48:11 <mynick12345> :D

22:37:52 <asr> and when I make check, I get a core dump in test-scm-init. The app itself runs; 'make' completed successfully. But I'm doing this to work around to submitting some patches, and if I can't check.... :P Any suggestions?
