gnucash migration from 2.4.11 to 2.6.5 on linux

[CCAAT]

Hello,

So I'm posting to the group on how I completed the migration of gnucash
form 2.4.11 to 2.6.5 under (gentoo) linux.

First: I used scp with options "-rp" to copy the <user/.gnucash> 
directory from one system to another.

Second: As was suggested, I exported the data file from the existing 
system (guncash-2.4.11) to a known location and  use the 'scp' command 
to copy it to the new system that was running gnucash-2.6.5.

Third: Start gnucash-2.6.5 and point to the data file and all is 
perfectly happy, with pretty much the same set up as on the previous 
system. I have not explored all of the features of the new version
of gnucash, but so far, no problems. If there are any suggestions
on specific new features to test, please post some detail and I'll
run those tests.


hth,
James
