With all this work, I think the sanest route for Gnucash 2.4.x at present would be to stick with Slack 14.0. And judging by the Gnucash 2.5.6 changelog, it could be a while before we see a 2.6 stable version.

Well done!

Gnucash has always been a lot of effort to compile on Slackware. So, for 14.1, there are a few more problems which you seemed to have solved.

Can you give me any details of what needs to be done.

From this thread I gather in it's simplest form for gnucash there are two options -

For OPTION 1 follow these steps not necessarily in the order quoted

Step A.
Compile the usual dependencies in the appropriate order.

Step B.
For libbonobo apply the mentioned patch - wherever that is?

Step C.
For gnome-vfs apply the mentioned patch - wherever that is?

Step D.
Install slib 3b2 to sit alongside slib 3b4 or instead off.

Step E.
Install a patched guille 1.8 so it can sit alongside guille 2.0

Step F.
Maybe instead of points 4 and 5 regress to slib 3b2 and guille 1.8 and see what breaks!!!!!

Step G.
Compile gunucash


For OPTION 2

Stick with Slackware 14.0 until the gnucash 2.6 release is available.

Well this is what I've done

Uninstalled guile 2.0.9 - hopefully this won't cause too much damage - just at the testing stage.

compiled and installed -

1. guile 1.8
2. gnutls - recompiled. Just in case, as it appears to use guile 2.0.9 and was compiled in slackware after guile 2.0.9 was installed as per current changelog
3. goffice
4. slib 3b2
5. libofx
6. libgnome-canvas
7. libgnomecups
8. ORBit2
9. gnome-mime-data
10. libgnomeprint
11. libgnomeprintui
12. libbonobo - patched to remove the -DG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED flag
13. gnome-vfs - patched to remove the -DG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED flag
14. libgnome - patched to remove the -DG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED flag
15. libbonoboui
16. libgnomeui
17. gtkhtml

All successful so now compiling gnucash 2.4.13

So it's just wait and see!

gnucash 2.4.13 and gnucash 2.4.11 fails to compile due to pcre being bounced from 8.12 in 14.0 to 8.33 in 14.1. pcre changelog states for version 8.30 -

3. Removed the function pcre_info(), which has been obsolete and deprecated
since it was replaced by pcre_fullinfo() in February 2000.

The error when compiling gnucash is -

/usr/lib/libgoffice-0.8.so.8: undefined reference to `pcre_info'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[4]: *** [gnucash] Error 1

Had to recompile goffice-0.8.14 with this patch -

after which gnucash compiled and started successfully. Now at testing stage.

Well that all tested successfully. I've move on to have guile 2.0.9 sitting next to guile 1.8.8. See http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hlight=gnucash
