It’s been many years, but if I’m not mistaken, that is what GnuCash does when
you enter an opening balance when creating an asset or liability account for
the first time. (rather than entering it later)
If you are planning to have other Equity entries, it is probably a good idea to
split the op
Thanks John I just double checked all of my securities. They all either
have online quotes disabled or are set to alphavantage, no Yahoo left. Is
there a log or something to get more details about the error?

Try it without the -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$HOME/.local switch.
This is only required if you have built the dependencies from source
yourself and installed them in this location rather than in the usual system
directories.
$cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/.local ../gnucash-3.4
should do the trick

As far as i know no dependencies have changed between 3.1 and 3.4. The
dependencies listed on the wiki should work as I complied them from a build
of 3.2 and I didn't have to chnge anything to build 3.4 that I remember. If
there are any major incompatibilities when you run cmake it will st

Where did you do the build? Do the "make uninstall" from that
directory/folder.
Yes, that is why I was explaining the abuse of the NUM field as a time field
for sorting and how to do it in a way that works. If you are doing this, (or
instead using 1,2,3,4 ) *and* you want to keep track of a transaction number,
then you’ll have to put it somewhere else so you can still sort

The way I did it was to set up a CoA with 5 parent accounts: Asset,
Equity, Liability, Income and Expenses. I set those as top level
accounts so no transactions can be entered directly into them. Then I
set up all my child accounts under the proper parent accounts. Then I
set up the opening

As far as I know gnucash 3.4 iis not available from the Ubuntu
repository for 18.04 (it is for 18.10). However packages have been
built for 18.04 by Stephen Butler, an extract from is post is:
Here are the three debian files for 3.4 (as released):

If you installed from source, you need to uninstall, yes. Otherwise you
have a potential mess.
Where did you install into?
I keep all programmes I compile myself under /usr/local/ which keeps it
clean and easy to separate out if necessary.

Make sure that you have no securities using any yahoo source except yahoo_json
(which BTW still works well and unlike alphavantage doesn't throttle). Any
attempt to use the other yahoo sources will cause the entire retrieval to fail.

I have GC 3.1 installed on 18.04 LTS, want to upgrade to 3.4.
I was trying to see if any dependencies have changed so I went to the
page here and typed this in terminal.
You can check whether the required libraries and/or headers are already
installed by listing the installed packages.

Hi, Devlin,
Considering you posted in GnuCash Users group, I gotta ask a question - do
you really want to build GnuCash or you just want to run it? Cause there is
now a binary (Flatpak) version available (even though still in testing
stages) but that might be an easier option in case GnuCash is no

To export the account tree use File->Export->Export Accounts to export the
