GnuCash Dependency Policy
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GnuCash desires to only depend on library versions and packages that are
|
|
|
|
|
practically available. Specifically, we choose to depend only on versions
|
|
|
|
|
that have been in the major distributions for 6 months. This is motivated in
|
|
|
|
|
part by the 1.6 release, which required a large set of relatively-recent
|
|
|
|
|
dependencies. Specifically, as most user's (distributions) did not have the
|
|
|
|
|
required versions packaged, it was exceedingly painful for end users to
|
|
|
|
|
upgrade to the anticipated release, leading to a reputation that gnucash
|
|
|
|
|
still has.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This document serves to keep track of the major distributions, the date of
|
|
|
|
|
their major release[s], and the relevant library versions as part of that
|
|
|
|
|
release (or an official package-upgrade path)
