[kmymoney] [Bug 412384] New: insufficient installation documentation
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=412384 Bug ID: 412384 Summary: insufficient installation documentation Product: kmymoney Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS: macOS Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: documentation Assignee: kmymoney-devel@kde.org Reporter: steve.61...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY no information is provided to find A) a compiled version of kMyMoney for the Mac; or B) simple complete instructions on how to compile your software for a non-Unix programmer. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. goto kmymoney.org. On the right click DOWNLOAD, find pc versions. Wonder WTF. 2. hit back arrow. select MACOS under preview versions. Wonder WTF? 3. ht back arrow. click on 4.7.2 for your Mac under macport. Download macports. Find no documentation on what it is or how to use it: all documentation assumes you already know. 4. find another site that has a tar file to download (sourceforge). Download and decompress files. Wonder why you have to do all this work, when the pc version downloads and runs, just like a normal program, not a f...g project. 5. read the README files. discover they too are written for unix programmers. open Terminal. type in a few of the commands. get "program not found". Quit in frustration. OBSERVED RESULT find a sludge of files, none of which run as kMyMoney. EXPECTED RESULT Find a usable alternative to Quicken. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: 10.14.6 Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=412366 --- Comment #2 from Erich --- Hi Ralf, I will try your patch. Are there any concerns with updating KDE_VERSION_RELEASE to 65? The patch file increases it from 60 to 65, whereas Slackware has it at 38. I assume I'll be missing additional functionality that was added along the way? Where can I find these additional patches to kdelibs? I was under the impression that 4.14.38 was the last release of kdelibs.

Reverting that commit on branch 4.8 HEAD restores Print to File (PDF) functionality. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Choose Reports, 1. Income and Expenses -> Income and Expenses This Month (Default Report) 2. Then choose Print, Print to File (PDF). OBSERVED RESULT KMyMoney goes through all the motions - including asking for confirmation to overwrite an existing file - but the PDF does not get created. Versions 4.8.3 and earlier create the PDF as expected. EXPECTED RESULT PDF file gets created by KMyMoney. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: Slackware64 14.2 KDE Platform Version: 4.14.38 Qt Version: 4.8.7 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I also developed a small patch which restores Print to File (PDF) functionality for me, but the print dialog appears twice (I did expect that to happen when I tried out the patch). So it is not a proper patch. What I believe is the cause of the problem: The net result of patches: 5f4f90e83565647f3579660e4c5d9ac447547a02 Fix 'Printer settings are not saved' 15ac7d472af41fc503dc5209643cfc8b392b0089 Add print support for report charts Changes the "print" command from m_part->view()->print() to q->m_part->view()->print(true); when KDE_IS_VERSION(4, 14, 65) is false (which is the case for me). >From what I can tell from reading the docs (I am not a KDE developer), this changes the "print" command from "print by asking the user how to print" to "print using the default settings". Unfortunately, those "default settings" are not what KMyMoney asked about in the code immediately preceding the "print" command, they must be the system-wide defaults. My minimally-invasive patch simply changes the print command back to what it used to be, with the net effect that the print dialog appears twice when printing a report. I did not test printing charts, which is what 15ac7d472af41fc503dc5209643cfc8b392b0089 addressed in the first place. Another Slackware user was able to reproduce the issue.
