I am running a debian unstable machine. I can provide dpkg -l | grep
<foo> output if needed.
I start gnucash, and three windows pop up, the splash screen,
centered, the "Welcome..." window, and the "tip of the day" window.
I wait for the splash screen to time out. I now have the tip and
welcome windows.
Bug #1. I click on "Close" on the tip window, and nothing happens.
I click the 'x' wm button (KDE 2.x) in the upper right corner
of the window, nothing happens. If I choose 'tutorial' in
the welcome window, and click OK, I can close the tip
window.
At this point, I have chosen tutorial and closed the tip of the day
window. I now have one window titled "gnucash help", and one titled
"accounts - gnucash (<no file>)". Because of what the tutorial told
me to do, on the accounts window, I click on file, new file, and I get
a new window, the "new account hierarchy setup" window. I click next
one time, and get to the USDollar decision.
Bug #2. Since I use the USDollar, I make no changes, just click on
Next, and get the following error.
gnucash: error while loading shared libraries: gnucash: undefined symbol: stat
and it all crashes away. For reproduction purposes, If you don't get
the welcome dialog box, you may need to move your .gnucash directory
out of the way. I had to do that one time.
