09:37:23 <warlord> OOPS?
09:38:58 <jsled> well, it was in the upgrade guide, and actaully related to expat's coincidental library version change.
09:39:57 <jsled> computers suck.

20:50:38 * chris can't. stand. the. SILENCE!!
20:51:00 <chris> ah, that's better.
20:51:36 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
20:51:36 <warlord> hehehe
20:52:24 <deejoe> why do I always get the urge to hear Pink Floyd's "Money" when I see the name of this program?
20:53:21 <chris> childhood trauma?
20:53:35 * chris shrugs.
20:53:58 <deejoe> heh
20:54:02 <warlord> heh
20:54:11 <deejoe> "Grab [gnucash] with both hands and make a stash"
20:54:20 <deejoe> chris: that's probably it
20:55:41 <warlord> heh

21:32:46 <Megiddo> Hi all. What would be the best way to do the following? I bought something with a credit card, but a friend paid half for it. I want the total to show on the CC account when looking at it, but I don't want the full amount to show in cash flow.
21:37:05 <deejoe> split the transaction?
21:41:55 <deejoe> http://www.gnucash.org/docs/v1.8/C/gnucash-guide/txns_registers1.html
21:41:58 <deejoe> section 4.2.2
21:50:42 <Megiddo> I know how to do a split transaction already
21:50:47 <Megiddo> What would I split it as?
21:50:59 <Megiddo> Half to what it actually is and half to 'unspecified'?
21:51:05 <Megiddo> So it doesn't show up on cash flow
21:55:17 <deejoe> if your friend paid cash, why wouldn't you want it to show as cash?
21:57:22 <Megiddo> Because it still looks like I'm paying twice as much as I did in the cash flow
21:57:52 <Megiddo> I realize it's not a huge problem in an isolated instance, but I seem to be running into this a lot
21:58:06 <Megiddo> And I like looking at the cash flow and seeing what *I'm* spending money on

23:00:29 <Megiddo> Gnucash has no way to do that?
23:43:07 <dbr> I'm not an expert, but I think your idea about half to unspecified is on the right track. If you set the options on a cashflow report correctly
23:43:22 <dbr> you can exclude categories
23:43:39 <dbr> jsled: I think rev 16378 causes Bug 467521
