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 6.3 and 6.4 (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
|
|
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 >= 0.16 and gdk_pix >= 0.7,
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
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"
|
|
|
|
* Download g-wrap from
|
|
ftp://ftp.gnucash.org/pub/g-wrap/g-wrap-0.9.1..tar.gz
|
|
unpack and untar, then
|
|
./configure, make, su, make install
|
|
|
|
* Download GnuCash
|
|
stable version:
|
|
http://www.gnucash.org/pub/gnucash/sources/stable/gnucash-1.4.x.tar.gz
|
|
development version:
|
|
http://www.gnucash.org/pub/gnucash/sources/unstable/1.5.x/gnucash-1.5.x.tar.gz
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
* 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
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
su root -c "make install"
|
|
|
|
* 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)'
