One small wrinkle MIGHT be that the original poster (Nathan T. Alexander) is running Ubuntu 16.04 -- from April 2016 -- and although it's an LTS release and technically continues to be supported by Ubuntu, there may be some additional touches needed to get a more recent version of GnuCash to

Re: [GNC] Trustworthy easy way to install gnucash 3.5 on ubuntu?

Nope. We only change dependencies in a major release, and anyway none of those are new dependencies. Since Ubuntu has a GnuCash3 package already you should be able to install all the dependencies with sudo apt-get build-dep gnucash as explained in

Wow, last time I built GC for Xenial I didn’t have to install all of that mess. Was there a major change in dependencies between 3.1 and 3.5? Regards, Adrien > On May 18, 2019, at 11:28 AM, Stephen M. Butler wrote: > > On 5/17/19 5:13 AM, Nathan T Alexander wrote: >> OK I tried compiling it

OK I tried compiling it myself. I downloaded the tarball and unzipped it into a /usr/loca/src/build-gnucash: Then I tried to follow the instructions here: https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building_On_Linux , so I ran: n@g:/usr/local/src/build-gnucash-3.5$ sudo cmake

Hi On 4th May Stephen Butler posted a mail to the list on how to use his GnuCash-3.5 package to install GnuCash on Ubuntu 19.04. Having done it, I can testify that it works - with a slight niggle if you use AlphaVantage (see my note of 5th May). It requires the use of the Terminal but
