I'm trying to build GnuCash 5.4 on while running 23.10. I spent a some time trying to make sure to install every dependency listed in the downloadable READ.dependencies, as best as I could.
Previously, when I was running 22.10, I was able to build and run GnuCash without error. Here is the console message when I attempt to build using the script provided on "Building on Ubuntu 22.10" wiki page. ```` (base) bluesanta@bluesanta:~/GnuCash/install-scripts$ ./ 22.10-kinetic-gnucash-install-script.sh [sudo] password for bluesanta: Hit:1 https://repo.steampowered.com/steam stable InRelease Hit:2 http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt mantic-pgdg InRelease Hit:3 https://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable InRelease Hit:4 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu mantic InRelease Hit:5 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu mantic-updates InRelease Hit:6 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu mantic-security InRelease Hit:7 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu mantic-backports InRelease Reading package lists...

That will break relocation so ENABLE_BINRELOC is set to off. With relocation disabled GnuCash will run only in its configured install location. You must set GNC_UNINSTALLED=1 and GNC_BUILDDIR=/path/to/builddir to run from the build directory. GnuCash will not run from a DESTDIR. -- Using guile-3.0.x -- Using guile SRFI-64 -- Using guile textual-ports -- Checking for GTEST -- Checking for GMOCK -- Configuring done (1.0s) -- Generating done (0.7s) -- Build files have been written to: /home/bluesanta/GnuCash/Build/build [ 0%] Built target ChangeLog [ 0%] Built target guile-json-details-links [ 0%] Built target guile-json-details [ 0%] Built target guile-json [ 0%] Built target totd [ 0%] Built target gnc-vcs-info [ 0%] Built target gnucash-manpage [ 0%] Built target gnucash-cli-manpage [ 7%] Built target po-gmo [ 7%] Built target iso-4217-c [ 8%] Built target gnc-core-utils [ 15%] Built target gnc-engine [ 15%] Built target test-core [ 15%] Built target swig-unittest-support-python [ 15%] Built target swig-unittest-support-guile-c [ 15%] Built target test-core-guile [ 15%] Built target scm-test-core [ 15%] Generating ../../lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/guile/3.0/site-ccache/gnucash/deprecated/gnucash/unittest-support.go wrote `/home/bluesanta/GnuCash/Build/build/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/guile/3.0/site-ccache/gnucash/deprecated/gnucash/unittest-support.go' [ 15%] Built target scm-deprecated-gnucash-unittest-support [ 15%] Built target gtest [ 15%] Built target gmock [ 16%] Built target jenny [ 16%] Built target swig-app-utils-python [ 16%] Built target swig-engine-c [ 16%] Built target swig-runtime-h [ 16%] Built target swig-core-utils-guile-c [ 18%] Built target gnucash-guile [ 18%] Built target swig-apputils-guile-c [ 18%] Built target gnc-locale-tax [ 18%] Building C object libgnucash/app-utils/CMakeFiles/gnc-app-utils.dir/file-utils.c.o In file included from /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib/giochannel.h:36, from /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib.h:56, from /home/bluesanta/GnuCash/Build/source/libgnucash/app-utils/file-utils.c:24: /home/bluesanta/GnuCash/Build/source/libgnucash/app-utils/file-utils.c: In function ‘gnc_getline’: /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib/gstring.h:74:5: error: ignoring return value of ‘g_string_free_and_steal’ declared with attribute ‘warn_unused_result’ [-Werror=unused-result] 70 | (__builtin_constant_p (free_segment) ?
