00:23:10 <fell> jralls: Yes, it is philosophical. As editor I would say, it is no new version. But as reader I might ask "Is my version recent?"
00:25:08 <fell> IPragmatical Iwould update the DTD, but not unchanged language/parts.

10:56:53 <jralls> @tell gjanssens Arch build is failing because of GLib deprecations. They updated glib to 2.62.0 and that apparently turns off G_STATIC_FUNC and G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_PRIVATE. We can work around it by setting -DGLIB_DISABLE_DEPRECATION_WARNINGS to CMAKE_C_FLAGS and CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS, but maybe it's better to just live with the CI failures for a few days and get everything fixed.
10:56:53 <gncbot> jralls: The operation succeeded.
10:59:57 <jralls> @tell gjanssens Separately your Docs CMake dist target doesn't create a working configure, it's missing install-sh. Surprisingly libtoolize in the unpacked srcdir doesn't fix it, had to autoreconf.

12:42:53 <RandomGuyOnIrc> I am printing a balance sheet report, and trying to make the initial balances match the initial balances of a balance sheet I was given
12:43:17 <RandomGuyOnIrc> How can I make "Opening Balances" disappear from the Equity portion?
12:43:41 <RandomGuyOnIrc> There is no such account in the balance sheet I was given
12:45:52 <RandomGuyOnIrc> As it stands now "assets - liabilities - total_equity == 0

12:55:56 <fell> RandomGuyOnIrc: "Opening Balance" as account name or as transaction description?
13:01:17 <Joc> RandomGuyOnIrc, at the beginning of the year I enter the starting amounts under equity>opening balances, for example from equity>opening balances to assets>bank>checking account, not sure if that answer your question
13:13:49 <RandomGuyOnIrc> @fell: Opening Balance is an account name
13:13:49 <gncbot> RandomGuyOnIrc: Error: "fell:" is not a valid command.
13:13:55 <RandomGuyOnIrc> @fell: Opening Balance is an account name
13:14:21 <RandomGuyOnIrc> @@fell: Opening Balance is an account name
13:14:21 <gncbot> RandomGuyOnIrc: Error: "@fell:" is not a valid command.
13:14:24 <RandomGuyOnIrc> fell: Opening Balance is an account name
13:15:19 <RandomGuyOnIrc> I entered that same reply 4 times, and got all sorts of replies from gncbot. @fell is getting interpreted as a request to the bot
13:15:32 <RandomGuyOnIrc> not sure what showed in other peoples screens
13:16:10 <fell> If you dislike it, remove/replace it with something more meaningfull for you.
13:16:42 <RandomGuyOnIrc> So I need an opening ballance for each of my accounts
13:16:59 <RandomGuyOnIrc> and I don't want the opposit entry to appear under equity
13:17:05 <RandomGuyOnIrc> or on the balance sheet at all
13:17:16 <RandomGuyOnIrc> is it possible to make it not appear on the balance sheet?
13:18:50 <fell> Equity is an important part of the balance sheet, but which subaccounts it should have depends on your locale law.
13:21:21 <fell> You could also have "me" and "my spouse" as subaccounts of equity instead of opening balance
13:25:07 <RandomGuyOnIrc> OK, I need to study up on what is a balance sheet, and go through some of the old balance sheets for this corporation
13:28:49 <fell> It is just the place, the new book assistant uses, but you are free to rename it.
