-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 at 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 at cvs.gnucash.org:/home/cvs/cvsroot login (password guest)
- cvs -d :pserver:cvs at 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
