Hi, I've been troubled by the lack of Gnucash activity in Debian/Ubuntu repositories. I previously used getdeb, which went silent around September 2017. I tried contacting the owners, but no reply. There was also an attempt on Launchpad to provided more recent versions via a PPA, but that also

This problem has been reported in the bug tracker as https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=796734. For a workaround one can rename or remove Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/lib/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/immodules.cache. Note that that will break the use of input modules so one will no longer be able to

Well, Tom, it's certainly an interesting discussion in general. :) I'd like to make two points: - You keep referring to Windows and I'm not sure why. At the moment I'm using GnuCash on both Windows and Linux and can't say that there is much difference if we talk about changing visual appearance.

You're right Geert, this class of application rarely has theming capabilities, but it was a very nice feature of GnuCash and it at least had the capability of dressing up an otherwise rather utilitarian interface. Personally, if you would just go in and adjust the tool-tips to be something other

Perhaps Geert's were not clear enough. The theming in GnuCash relies (more or less) completely on GTK framework. This framework, in version 3, has moved completely to open standards (read CSS) for styling, allowing many more people to customize the visual appearance of GTK applications. Also, if
