Um, using the ebuild?  I have no clue.  If you've got an svn checkout
sitting around you can run "svnversion ." from the top of the source
tree.   IMNSHO the ebuild is just broken for not building out of a direct
svn checkout dir and loses the svn version.  But... I didn't create
the ebuild.

Unfortunately, that means I really cannot support you -- you should
file bug reports with gentoo (or with the IMNSHO broken ebuild creator).

Sorry.

This sounds like the IMNSHO broken ebuild.  Complain to the ebuild creator
because they're giving you junk.

That's not very useful...

Well, yea, if it crashed it's going to ask you what to do...

Unfortunately the stack trace you gave was absolutely useless.  I don't
see a single gnucash function in the trace.  Sorry.

Try building gnucash again?  Maybe build it by hand instead of using
a completley useless an b0rken ebuild?

-derek

PS: I take it that gnucash at least built, while implies tha the subject
of this thread has been solved.   Please start a new thread if you
still have issues with current SVN.
