Rats.

Do you use online banking? It appears that a possible cause of the Update Dirs error might be that there isn't any aqbanking setup to update, and aqbanking whines about that.

I'm still at a loss about why the account file comes up with an empty screen the first time; it might be that binreloc got broken (I fixed it in trunk today). I'll test that theory tomorrow. In the meantime, you can select View>New Accounts Page to get the accounts page back, and from there open whatever other registers you like.
