Stephen please spend some CPU burning time on my chartJS branch which needs beta testing?

$git clone https://github.com/christopherlam/gnucash/tree/maint-chartjs-budget-barchart

Stephen,

By all means learn about git bisect, it's an extremely useful troubleshooting 
tool. But don't exercise yourself too much about this particular failure, Chris 
and I know exactly what commit caused it and that the underlying cause is a bug 
in ICU (International Components for Unicode, http://site.icu-project.org/) 
versions 57-62.
I figured the devs were way ahead of me.  And I'm burning the CPU this
evening finding that I can't compile 3.4-21 thru (I'm guessing) 3.4-38.
I'm up to 3.4-29 at this point and already know that -37 and -38 don't
compile on my box.  But -39, -40, and -43 do.  Don't know about -41 and
-42 (and probably won't check them).

Busy day tomorrow so I doubt the cpu will even get warmed up!  It's
pushing 11 pm so I'll call it quits on this exercise.

Thanks for the details.

I had thought that the problem was confined to 1969, but tonight got 
https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797067 which makes me think that it's 
every year, so more testing needed.

Regards,
John Ralls

Another experiment. Try prefix your build with "TZ=UTC " on current

Eg if using ninja, it'll be "TZ=UTC ninja check"

This is with the patches for 3.4.  I verified before Sabbath that 3.4
builds and passes the tests.  Tried your test first thing this evening
after git checkout maint and git pull.  I am at 3.4-43-g84d1c3645 which
builds but doesn't pass the tests.  So, I could build turning off the
test step.

However, Friday I was learning more about git bisect to see if I could
figure out which patch caused the tests to start failing.  However, a
couple of items got in the way:  1--time;  2--some commits don't build.
That messed me up a bit.  So, I may start over again with the bisect
(just for my own edification) and see what happens.  Maybe this time
I'll do a git describe each time and take notes so I'll be a little more
cognizant of what I'm learning.  <<did that make sense>>

    That's the manual to which I referred.  It meant something else to my
    mind when I first saw your post.  But, after further thought, my
    previous thought was faulty.


    My first boss after college would draw a picture to describe the
    difference between a bug and a feature.

    I can't draw so a word will have to do (at less than a thousand
    words)!

    BUG:  draw stick figure.


    FEATURE:  Add pants, tie, gloves, shoes and a top hat.


    MORAL:  A feature is a bug all dressed up and ready to go out.

Please remember this revert is reverting a buggy code with a
    previous
buggy code, so, cannot be consisted safe to package; best wait until
the clever devs can find a proper fix for gnc-date.

      OK.  I understand what you said earlier.  I'll put the patches
      back into
      the packaging.

      Thanks for clearing that up.

      PS Looking in manual for 'revert' command.
