07:04:51 <reactormonk> How do I select a template when creating a new book?
07:06:16 <MechtiIde> can you specify it
07:09:53 <reactormonk> MechtiIde, I'm not sure where to specfiy which template to use.
07:13:46 <MechtiIde> what do you mean to create an new book
07:15:18 <reactormonk> file -> new plan
07:15:47 <reactormonk> ah, it's called file -> new file in the english locale.
07:19:18 <reactormonk> I'm looking for the template in /usr/share/gnucash/accounts/de_CH/acctchrt_chkmu.gnucash-xea

07:36:49 *** ErKa has joined #gnucash
07:37:11 <MechtiIde> may you haver to set your locale to de_CH
08:08:23 <reactormonk> which one? LOCALE=de_CH.utf8 ?
08:27:46 *** ThomasKeller has joined #gnucash
08:29:13 <MechtiIde> try it
08:31:23 <ThomasKeller> hello
08:31:35 <ThomasKeller> is there any chance to compile gnucash without some of the gnome dependencies ?
08:31:43 <ThomasKeller> i.e. libgnome2-0

09:35:01 <MechtiIde> What do you mean with "User's Guide Dokumentation"? Does it means the Guide?

12:58:33 <jralls> ThomasKeller: GnuCash doesn't depend on libgome. The register code depends on libgnomecanvas; we have it in mind to replace that with libgoocanvas in the next major version.

13:46:38 <ThomasKeller> jralls: I am trying to compile debian package
13:46:53 <ThomasKeller> in that case, it looks like debian-specific dependency
13:46:54 <jralls> OK. So?
13:47:33 <jralls> That seems unlikely. What version of GnuCash are you trying to ocmpile?
13:49:11 <ThomasKeller> 2.4.10
13:51:43 <jralls> Ah. That one does depend on libgnome, and several other obsolete libraries. If you're on Jessie there are probably no packages for them so you'll have to build from source.
13:52:11 <jralls> There's no way to compile GnuCash 2.4 without them.
13:52:53 <MechtiIde> ThomasKeller, did you look there http://snapshot.debian.org/package/gnucash/1%3A2.4.10-4/#gnucash_1:3a:2.4.10-4
13:53:06 <MechtiIde> and nearby
13:54:04 <ThomasKeller> I am using Wheezy, but I see that there is gnucash 2.6 available in wheezy-backports
13:54:17 <ThomasKeller> so I might install that
13:54:42 <ThomasKeller> that is probably the same version as in Jessie
13:55:39 <ThomasKeller> thanks for the help
14:34:12 <MechtiIde> jralls, thanks
14:34:56 <jralls> MechiIDE: You're welcome. For merging your screenshots I imagine...
14:37:49 <MechtiIde> I did a next PR based on the last maint
14:47:21 <jralls> MechtiIde: It flunks xmllint. You commented out a bunch of tags in ch_oview but left them in gnucash-guide.xml.
14:49:47 <MechtiIde> I did xmllint ch_oview.xml and got only &app; and &vers-stabe; is not defined
14:52:04 <jralls> MechtiIde: Running xmllint on the one file doesn't check enough. You need to run `xmllint --noout --valid gnucash-guide.xml` which assembles the whole document and checks it. The easy way is to run 'make check' from guide/de.
14:55:09 <MechtiIde> ok I saw it
14:55:15 <MechtiIde> I will do another PR
14:55:57 <jralls> You don't need to. Just fix the update_ch_oview branch and push it and the current PR will pick up the change.
14:56:38 <MechtiIde> ok
14:56:59 <MechtiIde> but where can I find "`./gnucash-guide.xml:75: element link: validity error : IDREF attribute linkend references an unknown ID "oview-install-sqlite""
14:57:19 <MechtiIde> It isn't line 75 of gnucash-guide.xml
14:58:51 <jralls> Sorry, what do you mean? gnucash-guide.xml, line 75 has a linkend pointing to "oview-install-sqlite" which you commented out in ch_oview.xml. Either uncomment the id in ch_oview.xml or comment out the link element in gnucash-guide.xml.
15:02:23 <MechtiIde> I looked in maint too and can't find something lik this
15:02:42 <MechtiIde> line 74 and 75 is empty
15:03:28 <MechtiIde> Gnucash/gnucash-docs/guide/de/gnucash-guide.xml
15:04:44 <MechtiIde> same in branch update_ch_oview
15:07:10 <jralls> Ah, sorry, it's giving line numbers in the aggregated gnucash-guide.xml after incorporating all of the other fils. You have to grep for the linkend, e.g. `grep oview-reasons1 *.xml` shows that it's in index.xml.
15:08:24 <MechtiIde> ok I never touchde this file before
15:08:31 *** fabior has quit IRC
15:08:52 <MechtiIde> I will fix it tomorrow or so
15:08:59 <MechtiIde> It's time to leave here
15:09:13 <jralls> OK, Good night.

17:52:28 <Q-Chymera> hi guys, I have a number of scheduled transcactions, which go from an account in one currency to one account in anoter. Every time I open gnucash again I am prompted for the quotes from those specific days. This is very annoying. Can I not make gnucash fetch them automatically?
17:55:49 <jralls> Q-Chymera: No, there's no facility for that. Besides, an online quote is unlikely to be the correct value for your transaction.
17:56:59 <Q-Chymera> yes, that is also true, I was hoping if the quotes are close enough to the ones my bank actually uses, the transactions might get auto-detected when I load my bank .csv report
17:57:57 <Q-Chymera> is there any way to help gnucash identify these transactions when I import my reports? the problem is thex get correctly identified on the source account, but when I import the report from the destination account, gnucash invents extra transactions for them
18:01:21 *** kdub has quit IRC
18:07:53 *** kdub has joined #gnucash
18:14:20 <jralls> Q-Chymera: I can't think of a good way to do this other than to not create the transactions in advance and just get them from the bank's import. The import matcher would need an exact value match to recognize it as an already-entered transaction.

20:34:13 <warlord> ThomasKeller: no.
