I'm desperately trying to get GnuCash installed and working. I don't
really care how or which version. I tried using Fink to install
gnucash, which didn't work, then gnucash2 (after enabling unstable),
which didn't work. To make sure I didn't screw something up too
terribly, I wiped out /sw, installed fink from scratch, and tried it
again. Still no dice. Here's what I did:
1. installed fink
2. reinstalled X11.pkg and X11sdk.pkg from the Tiger install disc
(after fink tried to tell me it wanted to install xfree86)
3. fink selfupdate
4. fink index
5. fink update-all
6. sudo apt-get install gettext=0.10.40-25 (following fink's
recommendation after 'update-all' failed)
7. fink update-all
8. fink install gnucash
9. launch X11
10. export DISPLAY=:0
After that, running "gnucash" yields a bus error. It loads the splash
screen and then pops up two small windows entitled "Tip of the Day"
and "Welcome to GnuCash". However, before the windows get any
content, the whole thing crashes with a bus error.
fink --version yields:
Package manager version: 0.27.6
Distribution version: 0.8.1.rsync i386
gcc --version yields:
i686-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build
5367)
I'm running Mac OS X 10.4.10 on a MacBook with a 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
I installed and ran gnucash on my old PPC iMac with no problems, and
sadly got quite dependent on it, so I'm anxious to get this resolved.
Has anyone recently (and successfully) installed GnuCash on an Intel
Mac? Again, I don't care which version I install or how to do, so
long as it works. I've tried gnucash and gnucash2 from fink; I've
tried installing the latest GnuCash 2 from source. No dice.
Thanks,
Mike
P.S. here's the output of gnucash --debug:
