How to install gnucash on SuSE
|
|
||||||

||||||
Notes:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- This is only one way to get GnuCash running on SuSE. I did test
|
|
||||||
that, but there might be errors anyway, and of course you do all at
|
|
||||||
your own risk. If you find errors, you might report them to the
|
|
||||||
gnucash mailing list (gnucash-devel@gnucash.org)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- This is for SuSE 7.2, 7.3 and 8.0 (Intel). Earlier SuSE
|
|
||||||
distributions lack some required packages. Later SuSE distributions
|
|
||||||
didn't exist at the time of writing.
|
|
||||||
NOTE: You can install new packages to older versions of SuSE from
|
|
||||||
CD or ftp.suse.de or ftp.suse.com
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- This howto is primarily intended for compiling from source.
|
|
||||||
If you install the rpm, you don't need the various dev packages
|
|
||||||
(However, you won't see this howto until you installed the
|
|
||||||
GnuCash rpm succesfully ;-).)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The current stable version is gnucash-1.6.x,
|
|
||||||
the current development version is gnucash-1.7.x.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Let's go:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* 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 1.6.x version you need g-wrap-1.2.1
|
|
||||||
unpack and untar, then
|
|
||||||
./configure, make, su, make install
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
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.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Download GnuCash
|
|
||||||
stable version:
|
|
||||||
http://www.gnucash.org/pub/gnucash/sources/stable/gnucash-1.6.x.tar.gz
|
|
||||||
development version:
|
|
||||||
http://www.gnucash.org/pub/gnucash/sources/unstable/
|
|
||||||
and unpack it
|
|
||||||
tar xzf gnucash-1.y.x.tar.gz
|
|
||||||
* Alternatively get GnuCash from cvs
|
|
||||||
cvs -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.gnucash.org:/home/cvs/cvsroot login (password guest)
|
|
||||||
cvs -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.gnucash.org:/home/cvs/cvsroot checkout gnucash
|
|
||||||
(this will get you the latest development version)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* The lib directory contains packages that are needed to build GnuCash
|
|
||||||
but are not widely available yet. Read the file lib/README for details.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Make symbolic link for every file in /opt/gnome/share/aclocal
|
|
||||||
to /usr/share/aclocal (or tell me how to modify the automake setup
|
|
||||||
so that it looks in /opt/gnome/share/aclocal for input ;-))
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Configure, build and install gnucash. Installation must probably be
|
|
||||||
done as root, the files go to various places in /usr/local.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
cd gnucash-1.y.x
|
|
||||||
./autogen.sh
|
|
||||||
make
|
|
||||||
su root -c "make install"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To build GnuCash 1.7.x you need to add the argument --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu
|
|
||||||
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)"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* If want to send a patch, you need the makepatch perl module, which can
|
|
||||||
be found at:
|
|
||||||
ftp://ftp.cpan.org/pub/CPAN/authors/Johan_Vromans/makepatch-2.00a.tar.gz
|
|
||||||
unpack and untar, then
|
|
||||||
perl Makefile.PL, make, su, make install
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
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
|
|
