Hello,

This FAT write problem seems to affect only the Macport gnucash version (GnuCash 2.2.5 Built 2008-05-30 from r17141M) or maybe a 2.2.5 version's problem?

I tested it on a linux machine (ubuntu 8.08) with GnuCash 2.2.4 Built 2008-03-27 from r16997 and I could update the account files, no problem.

Could someone test GC 2.2.5? Or should I contact the Macport's GnuCash maintainer?

Cheers
