[GNC-dev] Issues building in ubuntu Bionic Beaver

2018-10-09 Thread Nathaniel Groendyk 
Hi Team,

I was trying to build gnuCash and came across a bug in libwebkit.
(It errors that it cant find jsc.h in a #include.)

Eitherway, I left notes on the general IRC channel about it, but thought
perhaps I should email you guys as well. I know its not a gnuCash bug, but
definately a build issue. The steps for anyone building from src in
ubuntu-bionic would be to downgrade their libwebkit stuff as follows:

sudo apt-get install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev=2.20.1-1 libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37=
2.20.1-1 gir1.2-webkit2-4.0=2.20.1-1 libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-dev=2.20.1-1
gir1.2-javascriptcoregtk-4.0=2.20.1-1 libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18=2.20.1-1

 as per bug-link:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/webkit2gtk/+bug/1795901

Anyway, I hope this helps.

Also FYI, I wanted to intro myself. My name is Nate. I'm a software dever
and am looking to get involved with developing gnucash. I saw in your long
term plans you want to move to C++ and more boost deps. I have experience
moving C to C++, I do that lots in my current job. Also deal with writing
code around SQL stuff for locking and whatnot. I'd love to hear what you
guys need help with.

Thanks
Nate

Agreed, I hope this doesn't hit EPEL before 787018 is fixed!  We /need/ 
PDF support to run the business.

I suspect that the 1.54 boost requirement is the same bug that the 
referenced Boost patch fixes since it blocks compilation of Gnucash.  It 
would be intersting to know if there are any other reasons that 1.54 is 
necessary.

Thanks for looking at this. I'd be nervous about changing the boost
requirements and would prefer that it be fixed before building this for
EPEL. But that's just me.
