Re: debian stretch upgrade has made gnucash unworkable

[Maxim Cournoyer]

Hello,

It's a bit of a heavy-handed workaround, but you could install Guix, a 
functional package manager that sports  transactional and roll-back updates. 
I'm using Guix(SD) myself and the packaged GnuCash version works fine. The nice 
thing about Guix is that it should be independent from your system libraries, 
so it should work independently from it.

Head to gnu.org/software/guix for more information!

Re: Is there a GC function to separate a multi-split transaction into sepa rate, 2-split transactions?

[Colin Law]

Ok, I think you will need to do that one at a time as David suggests.

Re: Manually adding prices to securities

[Michael via gnucash-user]

William, I believe there was a bug in 2.6.12 that was fixed in
2.6.13 and beyond.  I seem to remember the same problem when I was using
2.6.12. Mike

You need to use the full path to gnc-fq-dump because application bundles are 
not in the path. If you put Gnucash.app in /Applications the path will be
/Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-dump.

You can run /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-update to 
install or update the perl modules that GnuCash requires for online quotes.

Regards,
John Ralls
