NOTE: You can install new packages to older versions of SuSE from

- This howto is primarily intended for compiling from source.
|
|

|
|
If you install the rpm, you don't need the various dev packages
|
|
|
|
|
and you don't need g-wrap. (However, you won't see this howto
|
|
|
|
|
until you installed the GnuCash rpm succesfully ;-).)

- The current stable version is gnucash-1.4.x,
|
|
|
|
|
the current development version is gnucash-1.5.x,
|
|
|
|
|
the development version needs the latest GNOME libraries
|
|
|
|
|
to build, especially gnprint >= 0.23, gdk_pix >= 0.8
|
|
|
|
|
and gtkhtml-0.8, which are not included with current SuSE
|
|
|
|
|
distibutions. The easiest way to get the latest GNOME is to do
|
|
|
|
|
"lynx -source http://go-gnome.com | sh"
|
|
|
|
|
as root. At the end of this file is a list which helix gnome
|
|
|
|
|
packages I have installed at the time of this writing.

Let's go:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Make sure you have a running system, including X. For my tests I
|
|
|
|
|
started with a default installation and removed some packages to
|
|
|
|
|
save diskspace.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Install the following packages:
|
|
|
|
|
+ from series d
|
|
|
|
|
eperl guile swig xmhtml xmhtmld gettext
|
|
|
|
|
libxml libxmld
|
|
|
|
|
and optionally
|
|
|
|
|
autoconf automake libtool
|
|
|
|
|
(You must install libtool if you have autoconf/automake
|
|
|
|
|
installed!)
|
|
|
|
|
+ from series x
|
|
|
|
|
xdevel
|
|
|
|
|
+ from series gnm
|
|
|
|
|
gnlibs gnlibsd
|
|
|
|
|
for (check) printing
|
|
|
|
|
gnprint gnprintd
|
|
|
|
|
+ from series gra
|
|
|
|
|
imlib imlibdev
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Download slib from
|
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/jacal/slib2c7.zip
|
|
|
|
|
and install it by unpacking it to /usr/share/guile (this will
|
|
|
|
|
create a sub-directory slib):
|
|
|
|
|
cd /usr/share/guile
|
|
|
|
|
su root -c "unzip -L /tmp/slib2c7"
|
|
|
|
|
* Make sure you have a running system, including X and gnome
|
|
|
|
|
(and don't forget the development packages)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Download g-wrap from
|
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.gnucash.org/pub/g-wrap/
|
|
|
|
|
For the 1.4.x version you need g-wrap-0.9.12.tar.gz,
|
|
|
|
|
for the 1.5.x version you need g-wrap-1.1.4.tar.gz or newer
|
|
|
|
|
For the 1.6.x version you need g-wrap-1.2.1
|
|
|
|
|
unpack and untar, then
|
|
|
|
|
./configure, make, su, make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* If you want to build the development version, download Guppi from
|
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/guppi/Guppi-0.35.2.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
|
unpack and untar, then
|
|
|
|
|
./configure --prefix=/opt/gnome, make, su, make install
|
|
|
|
|
Guppi is not yet part of standard gnome distributions, but I expect it
|
|
|
|
|
to become more common soon.
|
|
|
|
|
For the 1.7.x version you need g-wrap-1.3.2
|
|
|
|
|
g-wrap-1.2 and g-wrap-1-3 are NOT compatible. If you want to
|
|
|
|
|
use both the stable and the development version of GnuCash
|
|
|
|
|
see the notes at the end of this file.

to the autogen.sh command (at least with SuSE 8.0).

* You may need to run GnuCash once as root, because guile needs to set up

some things for slib. Alternatively you can try as root:

guile -c '(use-modules (ice-9 slib)) (require 'new-catalog)'

Installing GnuCash 1.6 and 1.7 to one system:
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is quite tricky to have the stable and development versions of
|
|
|
|
|
GnuCash running on one system, because they need incompatible
|
|
|
|
|
versions of g-wrap (1.2.1 resp. 1.3.2).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On my system I have GnuCash 1.6.x and g-wrap-1.2.1 installed in the
|
|
|
|
|
usual location (/usr/local/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GnuCash 1.7.x is installed in /opt/gnucash/test_install/cvs_head
|
|
|
|
|
g-wrap-1.3.2 is installed in /opt/gnucash/g-wrap-latest
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To compile GnuCash 1.7.x I do:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
export PATH=/opt/gnucash/g-wrap-latest/bin:$PATH
|
|
|
|
|
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/gnucash/g-wrap-latest/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/gnucash/test_install/cvs_head
|
|
|
|
|
--with-g-wrap-prefix=/opt/gnucash/g-wrap-latest --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make
|
