17:50:18 <Robert847> Hello. I have purchased a new W11 laptop and I need to set up a capability to create a stack trace to help find out why GnuCash 5.15 is constantly crashing. I had it partly working in GDB on my old W10 computer but I didn't solve the issue before that computer went bellly up
17:52:07 <Robert847> Since I am starting over I am trying to understand what I am doing tho I am not a windows programmer but a retired electrical engineer
17:53:45 <Robert847> I have found https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Stack_Trace so I started there
17:57:15 <Robert847> that led me to https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Stack_Trace#Windows where I found instructions to Download the MSYS2 build of gdb, Extract the archive to your user directory., and Open a Powershell window...
17:59:54 <Robert847> There I found out that there is PowerShell 5.1 and PowerShell 7.6. Do I want to install and use 7.6?
18:04:13 <Robert847> Or is cmd good enough?

19:02:36 <Robert847> I installed Powershell 7.6 and started a session with PS C:\Users\carls\GDB> win32-gdb\gdb.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin\gnucash.exe" which was a disaster
19:04:43 <Robert847> I suspect there is an issue with mingw and or python being missing

22:34:08 <ledge> Hello! I noticed missing – and ’ characters from the gnucash beginner's guide viewed in yelp. These (and many others) are standard symbols in html but not xml and yelp silently ignores them. I am not sure how many undefined symbols were employed or if the definitions belong in section 4 of gnc-dockbookx.dtd or elsewhere.
