08:07:40 <chris> Here's a conundrum - I was on guile-2.0 - no issues - then sudo apt install guile-2.2 -> guile-2.2 now default -> rebuild build directory -> ninja -> ninja install -> now shows it's still loading cached files from e.g. /home/chris/sources/build/install/lib/gnucash/scm/ccache/2.0/gnucash/report/standard-reports/portfolio.go
08:09:43 <chris> ^ somehow my build doesn't handle guile-2.2 correctly whereas travis-arch seems well-configured
08:21:00 <chris> ^ funny... cmake shows 'Using guile 2.0.x' even though 2.2 is installed and has priority

08:29:59 <gour> chris: i'm getting some help in #guile while attempting to make current-vs-average report working under 3.0. here is the latest what i got (after resolving problems of loading some stuff): https://pastebin.com/yvWsZd2E
08:33:27 <chris> gour: well you are trying to load gncitmeperiod-utilities into a blank guile environment. this module relies on a lot of gnucash modules which rely on C and SWIG and etc. ergo you will never be able to load a gnucash guile module directly into guile.
08:34:56 <chris> I cut my teeth the hard way - I was hacking on existing reports on Windows using Notepad++, restarting Gnucash every time to reload, rather than loading into guile; but at least this meant I had access to full gnucash APi
08:34:56 <gour> chris: well, i'm trying to troubleshoot current-vs-average report since it does not get installed and debug does not produce any output, so wonder how to troubleshoot it?
08:35:45 <chris> it's quite difficult because IMHO these reports are written rather badly
08:36:08 <gour> i'm also restarting gnucash, but what to do when there is no error whatsoever?
08:36:29 <gour> my thought was that guile itself could provide some help...
08:37:42 <j605> whatever happened in between, I am not hitting this bug anymore in Arch: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/issues/61
08:39:35 <chris> i think you first task is to try get current-and-average and it's dependent gnctimeperiod-utilities to both be loaded into gnc

08:44:12 <gour> chris: some progress - https://pastebin.com/k1v50U71
08:44:28 <gour> how one loads stuff into gnc?
08:45:19 <chris> check wiki "Custom Reports" which should show how to add config.user or something
08:45:35 <chris> gour: you now need to modify gnctimepair stuff to gnctime64 -- see current reports for guidance
08:46:21 <chris> gour hint https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/pull/256

08:47:03 <gour> chris: thanks. now have to do something non-computer relate, will resume later

09:03:27 <kbr> hiya. With gnucash 3.1 on windows, I cannot open files that are e.g. on a different disk or outside of my home directory. Quick google turned up nothing. Any advice?
09:04:12 <chris> kbr: known issue
09:04:21 <kbr> So the issue is, on start gnucash will complain that the file X:\foo.gnucash does not exist (it does). The file browser just does not browse to drives, but it does browse to folders below $HOME
09:04:27 <kbr> alright
