John,
You will need to use
$sudo apt install gnucash
to install from the repository.
You may also need to use apt-get instead of apt if the alias apt is not
defined on Debian. to locate the executable
$whereis gnucash
should give you the path to the executable any libraries and shared
Flatpak is not the only option, you can also build from source. It does
take some work to set up the dependencies for building and the build
tools, but once done, you should be able to easily build each new
version as they come out. Setup should take maybe 15-30 minutes
depending on any errors
Peter,
I thought the same about partial sales, but have found now that almost all my
scenarios can be addressed in the lots tool. In my case, matching the broker's
sales record up to the correct lot yields accurate results, except in this
situation with a split stock. I agree with you
Christopher,
Thanks for the reply.
I'll have to figure out how I'd trigger the --extra flag in Windows and take a
look at that report. It may make the whole gains process a little easier. As it
is, a statement with 10-15 sales transactions can take quite some time to work
through. I
Thanks Adrien.
Is Flatpak the only way to get 4.x onto a Debian system?
I have cleared out my 2.6.12 version (a local build which apt did not see
at all) by hand, after uninstalling 3.4 from the repo.
I then reinstalled 3.4 using apt but it won't start. I see my cursor
indicating something
My experience is that the View Lots cap gain method is tractable right up
to the point where you have partial lots, and is not really usable (or, at
least, I don't find it usable) afterwards. When I have a partial sale of a
lot, I don't even try to use it. Just add a gain/loss transaction by
Larry,
If you are up to building GnuCash on Ubuntu you can use 4.1. See the thread
Ubuntu distribution version for more detail. it's a bit of a challenge if
you aren't used to building software first time through but after that
generally pretty straightforward.

If you accepted the default, then you aren't using a database. The
default is XML for all platforms.
But I don't think it would be wise to run two different major versions
to access the same file.
There is a possibility you could use 4.1 and 3.11 (the last 3.x release)
but you'd have to get

David, I don't use stock at all myself but have a couple of suggestions.
1) lots can be made much more visible with the "lot-viewer" report which is
hidden behind the --extra flag.
2) FIFO and LIFO are handled in advanced-portfolio, and adjusted cost basis

Hi,
In the last couple of days, I have learned TONS about how to manage
capital gains with assorted lots in the GnuCash realm. The financial
institution I use has algorithms that adjust my accounts to minimize tax

GnuCash, and
Thanks for the info everyone.
So now I'm trying to build GnuCash 4.1 on Ubuntu 18, mainly because I

myself into more trouble than it's worth. But I'm currently stuck at

You can't get the individual payments to show up in the Bills Due Reminder.

Flatpak is a way to install software without dealing with dependency issues.
Rather than try to use versions (perhaps incompatible ones) of
dependencies already on your system or in the repos, a Flatpak contains
everything needed to run the chosen app.

Thanks, Frank.
This — sudo flatpak override org.gnucash.GnuCash

The embarrassing thing is that, in searching for a solution, I actually
looked at that page, but it didn't register that the flatpak sandboxing was
my problem. Duh!
Do I have to rerun that
Bruce, In addition to Frank's suggestion, if you drill down through the

Bruce,
perhaps you should start with

That will give you the overview, which GnuCash version in which release
is in universe available.
In some cases -{updates|backports} got more recent version

Unfortunately, the only listing there for 3.8 is:

For a posted liability of say $1,000with an agreement to pay in 10 monthly
installments of $100 each.How do you enter those monthly payments and...1 -
have the payment applied to the liability2 - have the monthly payment appear in
the "Bills Due Reminder"3 - or any report that shows you..
Check out this page and references therein for most details:
https://gnucash.org/new_features-4.0.phtml
There are probably a few minor differences overlooked.

Derek,
The choices on what versions are supplied wiith a given OS version are made
by the maintainers of the OS distribution. They usually use the current
GnuCash version (but not always) at the time of release of a new OS version.
If you want to stay up to date with GnuCash, the main options
