Petr,
The 'nice' fix to get would actually be a real fix on gnucash for guile 1 / 2 conversion.
Together with upstream there was a lot of work undertaken already to build it (which succeeds with all the patches we have, which is also part of the 2.4.8 release), but runtime actually fails to load guile based modules (Also the test suite of gnucash fails on that one).
bgo#655901 has some more information about this issue.
Dominique, here are steps, that caused GnuCash start at least on my factory system (hopefuly I didn't forgot something): 1. apply patch to gnucash enclosed, build and install it see http://blog.peter-b.co.uk/2011/06/geda-and-guile-dealing-with-deprecated.htm... 2. remove maxdepth setting from /usr/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/main.scm 3. replace all occurences of N_ by _ in all files in /usr/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/report /usr/share/gnucash/guile-modules/gnucash/report/standard-reports It is surely not perfect, but only way I found in short time I have for that. I'll investigate it further. Petr

While a 'gnucash that works with guile 2.0' is a laudable goal, in the interests of providing a gnucash that is less likely to have issues wouldn't simply providing a guile1 (and guile1-devel) package and having gnucash build against that be safer? At least for 12.1 ? -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

I will try to perform a more exhaustive test soon, but a quick run and open and click-about shows that your packages do, indeed, appear to work. What's the likelihood that (assuming more successful testing) that this can become an update for 12.1? -- Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks for your time and efforts! As soon as we get a gnucash together (also together with upstream) that works, the online update should not cause any problem. After all we would replace a non-working package with a working one... could there be a better argument? Unfortunately, it seems, this package still has some lacking features. The fact that a bunch of it is written in guile doesn't make it easier to debug. The more exotic the languages, the less people you can find to debug the stuff :( Dominique -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
