Help installing gnucash please...
Hi,
I use Quicken 2000 under WinXP, and this is pretty much the only application I need to keep XP on my laptop for! I have installed Kmymoney, but its import of Quicken files is lousy, so I want to try gnucash. I have downloaded and unpacked in /usr/src gnucash-1.6.8. The first './configure' command failed because it wanted some files in the gnome-libs-1.4.1.7 package: checking for gnome-config... noWhen I try to './configure' the gnome-libs package, this fails with: checking for orbit-config... noAny ideas as to where I go now would be much appreciated... |
Don't use slack, but here's a guide I found through google. Good luck!

why are you trying to use a 4 year old version of a package that is still releasign new versions on a regular basis? gnucash.org shows the latest version came out a mere 4 days ago. this is officially unstable, but even their current stable is a good 2.5 years newer. this old version only requires gnome1 whilst i'd assume the latest will use gnome2 which you're more likley to have installed already.

I should have read the small print - seems I need gnome installed, and I can't be having that! Wish I'd read that before having to get guile, g-wrap, slibs etc...
Have now got KMymoney working a treat, so will stick with that. Thanks for the help. |
