I haven’t. I did try to download the 1.58-dev files from the Xenial repo, but that’s when I hit a wall of additional dependencies and decided further effort wasn’t worth the trouble. I don’t need it for my own use. I was just testing it because I had time. I daily use GnuCash on High Sierra.

Adrien and Colin, Thanks for banging on this.  I have an email out to Dmitry asking if he has a Launchpad account or if he'll let me use his /debian folder (which I have already downloaded and started inspecting) to push up to Launchpad to try to build a ppa for the various versions. --Steve On

Managed to give http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gnucash/gnucash_3.4-1_amd64.deb a quick try on 18.10 and it fails to install with lots of missing packages, and apt install -f just says it is going to remove the partially install gnucash again, which I think means the packages are

Thanks.  I checked the trusty and others and they had older versions.  So, maybe not so good news. But, if I can get his debian folder On 1/3/19 1:34 PM, Colin Law wrote: > On Thu, 3 Jan 2019 at 21:28, Stephen M. Butler wrote: >> mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu >>
