Thanks for correcting me. It seems, I missed some decisions and had to late a 
look on 
http://svn.gnucash.org/trac/log/gnucash/trunk/accounts/de_DE/acctchrt_skr04.gnucash-xea?action=stop_on_copy&rev=&stop_rev=&mode=stop_on_copy.

At least, it is irritating, if configure says, it is experimental, and so it 
is not default. On the other hand the windows installer sets it, as Andreas 
mentioned.

My opinion is, at least for german it is experimental,  it is incomplete, it 
is nonfunctional. For a long time there were no activity on 
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=432143 and I see other problems, 
made by german fiscal bureaucracy, for which I do not see a quick solution. I 
fear, to fullfil the requirements of the german fiscal bureaucracy for VAT 
would mean a bigger rework of the tax module. Any volunteers?

I am not sure, but I assume, setting the flag in the windows installer was 
caused by patch 16503, which IMHO should never have been applied on trunk - 
at least as long as locale tax is not working. After this patch SKR04 
requires --enable-locale-specific-tax.

So, I would suggest, to revert patch 16503 to remove this dependency.

If setting LANG to ru works, then you are obviously on a good track! Try
to confirm the used location of ru.mo by renaming that file and
retrying. I could imagine that GnuCash picks up c:\Program Files\gnucash
instead of c:\soft\gnucash\inst by looking into the registry. You can
work-around that by uninstalling GnuCash, changing the registry entry or
other similar hacks.

When you switch to bg, are the standard GTK+ translations active, i.e.
strings in standard dialogs, OK, Cancel, File>Save, File>Print Check>?
If they are, your bg.mo should work as well, I think.

Ciao,

PS: You might be interested in translating the installer as well :-)
Take a look at packaging/win32/gnucash.iss.in for that.

MacPorts.  I've used it for most (all?) of the Gnucash prereqs.  I like 
MacPorts a bit better than Fink since things tend to be more up to 
date.  It's also easy to build a debug version of something using 
MacPorts, which is useful when debugging Gnucash's interface to GTK, 
for example.

Unfortunately no.  The QB data format is proprietary and not documented.
See the FAQ:

http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_How_do_I_import_my_data_from_Quickbooks.28TM.29.3F

We'd be happy to add support if someone donated the code to parse the
QBW data file format.

I just considered it, and it would be grand!  :)

Unfortunately, the QuickBooks file format is not documented in the same way
that QIF is.  And over the years that people have wanted QuickBooks import,
no one has contributed the code to do it.

So, I'd suggest re-entering your data, or starting with a new data file in
GnuCash at the next convenient opportunity.

You currently offer the ability to create by importing Quicken (.QIF) files.
Are you considering going to the next stage and offering compatibility with
QuickBooks.

We currently run QuickBooks Pro 2001 and would love to move away from it.

What packaging system are you using in order to get GTK 2.12.9?

I'm happy to hear that it's working!

Agreed, I dont think GnomePrint is going to be necessary going forward..
Except for the fact that fink still uses a fairly old Gtk.

Yeah, it'll be nice when the report configurations aren't stored

I believe the answer is yes.  If you configure with
--enable-locale-specific-tax then it should open with
tax/us/tax-de_DE.scm.

You're better off running "make dist" on Linux and then moving the

However, you may want to wait a while. I haven't had good experiences

I'm keen to take a look and see why.
