That's https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798754, fixed in 4.13 and 5.0 by https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/commit/abcce5000ca72bf943ca8951867729942388848e. Your cmake output indicates that you're actually trying to build GnuCash 4.13, but using a working tree with a HEAD commit that lacks that tag. Since using git seems to be outside your skillset I suggest that you delete that directory and use a release tarball instead; you can find a download link for the current release tarball in the upper right corner of https://www.gnucash.org/. You might consider instead using a flatpak build, see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Flatpak Regards, John Ralls _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
