aqbanking crashes during setup

Gnucash, and restart (Gnucash will open the last open file, which should be
the new one). Then try creating the new user.


I did, and Gnucash crashed in the same place

install them into the Gnucash bundle (Gnucash.app/Contents/Frameworks), then
the crash dump will be a lot more informative. Of course, that's a newer
version of Qt, which might fix the problem on its own. (Keep the old
frameworks on the off chance that the linker doesn't like the new ones.)

I did that, and now when i click on the 'Start AqBanking Wizard' button the
button moves as though it's being pressed, but nothing else happens. It's as
if there's no code associated with clicking the button.

I appreciate all your help. at least i can continue using the windows
version.
