3.1 - 29 April 2018
The second release of the 3.0 stable series.
The following bugs have been fixed:
Bug 118391 - Long currency names untranslated
Bug 769686 - Notes not imported when using update and reconcile in
import transactions from CSV
Bug 772776 - VERY large queries (over 11000 fields in IN clause) slow
down GnuCash
Bug 782144 - git-master - Save Corrupts Data File / Not Open Data File
Bug 792105 - Startup takes several minutes
Bug 793461 - Transaction matcher window blank when importing QFX
Bug 794767 - Dates default to 01/01/1970
Bug 794916 - Fails to find environment file at startup when installation
prefix is '/opt'
Bug 794936 - 3.0 does not open previously saved sqlite3 files properly
- corrupted business data
Bug 794941 - Both print icons export to pdf
Bug 794953 - Ellipsize on short tab labels
Correct error on when to ellipsize tab labels. Also as this
is used in two places separate out this to new function so
it is not duplicated.
Bug 794990 - Double click does not work on saved reports
When you double click on the saved report description nothing
happens. This was down to a conflict on a couple of call
backs and one of them was incorrectly setup.
Bug 794994 - Display Alphavantage key in full
Set the entry to expand so all the space is used to display.
Bug 795031 - 3.0 Crashes on loading when opening 2.6.19 file
Bug 795039 - Crash on startup using Technicolor Style sheet in report
Bug 795040 - GnuCash crashes when searching for a newly created bill
Bug 795049 - GnuCash 2.6.20-1 (Fedora Linux package) is unable to open
MariaDB.
Bug 795064 - Enable subtotal-only if either sortkeys are dates
This will allow 'show subtotals only' if sortkeys are
date-types. This allows, for example, prime-sortkey=date,
yearly. sec-sortkey=date, monthly.
Bug 795068 - src/optional/python-bindings missing several files
Bug 795080 - Some dates reset to 01/01/1970
An odd corner case: BST apparently came off of DST at 23:00
26 Oct 2014, so midnight that day was ambiguous about being
DST or not; that causes the local_date_time constructor to
throw in spite of the tm.is_dst element being 0 (meaning pick
standard time). Instead of just failing in that case, try
constructing a local_date_time three hours later then adjust
it back three hours. If *that* doesn't work then throw a
std::invalid argument.
Bug 795082 - CSV import crashes if a transaction's 'Account' field is
empty and no default Account set
Bug 795101 - Scrollbar floats and covers toggle buttons
When the scrollbar appears for the reconcile windows it can
float above the reconcile toggle button which make it
difficult to toggle. Move this column to the start which has
the advantage of aligning the amount column above the Total
value.
Bug 795142 - Unable to enter account codes in business sheets
In Bills, Invoices and Expense vouchers you can not enter an
account code in an account field like you can on a normal
register, enable this.
Bug 795155 - CSV import does not distinguish between deposit and withdrawal
Bug 795347 - Australian (GMT+10) OFX transactions imported have previous
days date
Bug 795377 - Reads and saves Gnucash 2.6.19 XML file, then can't reread
it, due to bad date in old file
Bug 795389 - Hard to see figures in the budget window
The budget view had hard coded black for normal values and
dark grey for other values. Changed this so normal values
are reset to default color and adjusted the grey based on
default color for theme.
Bug 795405 - All Dates in Price Database Off-By-One After 3.0 Upgrade
Bug 795446 - On Windows there is a blank tip of the day
When the tip_of_the_day.list is created a new line is
appended to the list file and on Windows this causes a blank
tip so remove the adding of the extra line.
Bug 795471 - Budget window scrolls edited cell out of site
When editing cells that have been revealed on the right by
scrolling the window snaps back to the left hiding the cell
being edited. This may be due to an underlying gtk issue
but these changes fix the issue visually.
Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs:
On Windows the tooltip for saved reports was incorrect
When the mouse was placed over a saved report description on Windows an
empty tooltip was displayed. Setup the query tooltip callback so it does
not display a tooltip for description column.
Fix crash when loading sql book with posted transactions
Add ability to recognize and use a pre-compiled libgmock.so.
html-font: add default font family
Windows ships with GTK2 in which the default font styles are named
"Sans" "Sans Bold" "Sans Normal" etc. There is no "Sans" font in
Windows; I vote to add a default "Sans-Serif" font-family which is
valid CSS. This ensures exported reports are shown as intended.
Several improvements to the Transaction and GST reports.
csv-impport - Allow empty amount fields
Treat empty amount fields as 0. This is necessary for example in
the case the csv import file has both a deposit and a withdrawal
column.
Remove the set transient parent setting for Reconcile window
The Reconcile option is already a window so it is not necessary to set
this value which allows the jump to transaction to work properly.
Date Format dialog flashes up when file/properties used
When you select the File/Properties dialog, in the construction of that
a 'Date Format' dialog flashes up while the date component is moved to
the properties dialog. Can mainly be seen on Windows so remove the
visible setting in glade file.
Prevent throw in gnc-pricedb.
If a price lookup is given an invalid time64/timespec (i.e. INT64_MAX)
then just return NULL instead of trying to find the nearest price.
Set GNC_VCS at build time instead of when making the tarball.
Because the tarball is always made from a VCS repo.
If there are no prices in the db, critical errors are flagged
When dialog transfer is used between two commodities and there are no
prices in the db a critical error is logged. Test for price object
being NULL before retrieving the price for the error message.
The following translations are updated: Slovak, Spanish
Known Problems:
It is not possible to overwrite SQL Databases from within GnuCash, even
though GnuCash will ask if you want to. Bug 789594
Several dates, including Accounting Period, are subject to change with
time zone and daylight-time changes. Bug 791825
Some HBCI information is not loaded correctly so the first transaction
download will re-retrieve transactions unless the beginning date is
set explicitly. Bug 792397.
The new CSV importer's Price of Shares column doesn't work. Bug 793306
The new CSV importer's numeric parser can't parse numbers of the form
x + y/z. Bug 793556.
Python bindings may not work in some installations because the bindings
are unable to find the backend modules (libgncmod-backend-dbi and
libgncmod-backend-xml). Bug 794526
Get Quotes can be slow if one has a large number of saved prices.
Bug 794644.
The Mac localization code can set the wrong encoding for strftime causing
the register's date picker to label months "Null" in some locales.
Bug 794807
On Mac, the File Open dialog will crash if one types anything.
(This is a Gtk+ bug). Bug 794809
An open register is not immediately updated when the Since Last Run
dialog creates transaction splits in the register's account. Bug 794854
GnuCash asks if one wants to save changes when quitting or opening a file
even if there's no book open. Bug 794870
Windows Defender falsly identifies the GnuCash installer as a Trojan.
Bug 794967
Some Windows users have trouble using Chinese input methods on the
Register; other controls work. Bug 795253
On Microsoft Windows the Tab key does not work in the register if the
caps-lock key is on. Bug 795294
GnuCash will crash if one attempts to import a CSV file with more than
1400 transactions. Bug 795383
Invalid input into a formula (Debit/Credit) field is inconsistent
depending on the input. Bug 795614.
Notable changes since 1.8.0:
* From version 1.9.0 onwards, the urllib was substituted by pythons
request library that is thread safe. If you have any error, post an
issue.

The GnuCash development team announces GnuCash 2.6.21, the twenty-second and final, final maintenance release in the 2.6-stable series.
Between 2.6.19 and 2.6.21, the following bugfixes were accomplished:
* Bug 795049 - GnuCash 2.6.20-1 (Fedora Linux package) is unable to open MariaDB database.
* Bug 795068 - src/optional/python-bindings missing several files.
* Bug 795078 - missing _inflateValidate symbol has recurred in 2.6.20 on MacOS.
Between 2.6.19 and 2.6.20, the following bugfixes were accomplished:
* Bug 765846 - Expense Over Time for subaccounts: An error occurred while running the report: Fix crash if acc-depth too low.
* Bug 791848 - GC 2.6.x does not handle ISO dates introduced with GC 2.7 Enable reading ISO-formatted dates, recognize GNC_FEATURE_SQLITE3_ISO_DATES.
* Bug 792008 - gnucash 2.6.19 fails to build Replace g_assert_true with g_assert for now
* Bug 793278 - wrong data in charts with accumulated values (like "net-linechart", "net-barchart" and "liabilities barchart")
* Bug 794030 - relative date functions compute wrong day of month
* Bug 790526 - Mathematical bug This change will fix 'num-of-weeks-since-1/jan/1970' which formerly used quotient to remove the fractional part of the division. For negative values of num-of-weeks, the number is truncated in the wrong direction (i.e. towards 0). This change uses floor instead to ensure the num-of-weeks found is the nearest integer LESS than the fractional number.
Some other fixes not associated with reported bugs:
* Online HBCI actions: Remove outdated non-SEPA menu items.
* Add XML namespaces for all Account Hierarchy Templates.
* General cleanup of Account Hierarchy Templates.
* Fix auto-selection of splits in reconcile. Really use all splits of any given day. Up to now usually the splits of the given date were not or not all included, as the time comparison didn't correctly ignore any given time-of-day of the splits. Instead, all possible time-of-days should be included.
* Properly detect git in case of linked worktree.
* Account Hierarchy for India: Set LANGUAGE=hi and LANG=en_IN to access it.
* Improve Import menu entries Customer & vendors use same menu label as others, replace template by tooltip, add ellipsis to entry, add comments to distinguish "Import" as verb and substantive.
* Provide preference panel to set the Alpha Vantage API key needed for Finance::Quote.
* Correct the appstream definition to match the current spec.
* Fix collectors and min-date handling in reports.
The GnuCash development team proudly announces GnuCash 3.0, the
first release in our new 3.x stable series.
New Features for Users:
The headline item for this release is that GnuCash now uses
the Gtk+-3.0 Toolkit and the WebKit2Gtk API. This change was
forced on us by some major Linux distributions dropping support
for the WebKit1 API. Unfortunately the Webkit project doesn't
support Microsoft Windows so that platform will continue to
use the WebKit1 API, though with Gtk3. We've selected Gtk+-3.14.0
as the minimum version because it fully supports CSS theming.
New editors to remove outdated or incorrect match data from
the import maps, a new user interfacs for managing files
associated with transactions, an improved facility for removing
old prices from the price database, and a way to remove deleted
files from the history list in the file menu.
New Reports: A Reconciliation Report based on the Transaction
Report,a Income GST Report, and a Cashflow Barchart report.
A new CSV importer largely rewritten in C++, adding new features
including the ability to re-import CSV files exported from
GnuCash, along with a separate CSV price importer.
A new preference panel for the Alphavantage API key so that
Finance::Quote users need not edit /etc/gnucash/environment.
We've removed all references to the various Yahoo! quote sources
and made Alphavantage the default.
Data file directories are now located appropriately to the operating system's conventions by default:
Windows: CSIDL_APPDATA/Gnucash
MacOS: $HOME/Application Support/Gnucash
Linux: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gnucash (or the default $HOME/.config/gnucash)
It's still possible to overried with the environment variable GNC_DOC_PATH, which replaces GNC_DOT_DIR in earlier versions of GnuCash.
Accounts in the Bayes import map are now linked by GUID instead
of names so that the matcher won't have to be retrained if you
rename an account. The Bayesian import maps are also stored in
a flatter structure to allow faster access, especially in SQL.
These changes mean that if you have Bayesian mapping data, once
converted your database will be loadable only by GnuCash 2.6.20
and later.
MySQL and SQLite3 date storage has changed a bit. Once converted,
MySQL and SQLite3 database will be loadable only by GnuCash
2.6.19 and later.
Numerics are rewritten to allow for more significant digits.
The old 6-digit-maximum fraction is now 9-digits, and prices
may have up to 18 digit precision.
Chart Reports appearance is improved, including more modern
chart colours as suggested by http://clrs.cc/.
Transaction Report improvements, including regular expression
filtering and many more options and features including a
"Subtotal Summary Grid" The subtotal summary-grid will tabulate
subtotals - prime-sortkey vertically, sec-sortkey horizontally.
For example, with prime-sortkey = accounts, sec-sortkey = date,
sec-subtotal = monthly will produce a monthly time series table.
The About dialog box layout is improved and now includes the
detected Finance::Quote version.
GnuCash will always build the locale-specific tax modules. This
was optional when building with autotools and never enabled
when building with cmake. Note that the only supported tax
locales are en_US and de_DE.
On Macs the Reconcile Window's menu moved to the menubar.
GnuCash no longer supports Guile-1.8 and now does support Guile-2.2
From finance/gnucash, to make space for new major version 3.
GnuCash is a personal finance manager. A check-book like register
GUI allows you to enter and track bank accounts, stocks, income
and even currency trades. A full set of reports allow you to see
the state of your finances. The interface is designed to be simple
and easy to use, but is backed with double-entry accounting principles
to ensure balanced books. Features include:
- Scheduled Transactions
- Small Business Accounting Features
- OFX and Quicken File Import and HBCI Support
- Reconcile window with running reconciled and cleared balances
- Stock/Mutual Fund Portfolios
- Get Stock & Mutual Fund quotes from various web sites, update
portfolio automatically (more funds being added regularly).
- Reports
- Multiple Currencies & Currency Trading
- New Multi-Currency Transaction Handling
- Chart of Accounts
- Split Transactions
- Double Entry
- Income/Expense Account Types (Categories)
- General Ledger
- International date handling, many different translations.
This package contains the old major version 2 of gnucash.

This package provides a collection of functions to valuate basic
options. This includes the generalized Black-Scholes option, options
on futures and options on commodity futures.
This package provides a collection of functions to explore and to
investigate basic properties of financial returns and related
quantities. The covered fields include techniques of explorative data
analysis and the investigation of distributional properties, including
parameter estimation and hypothesis testing. Even more there are
several utility functions for data handling and management.
This package provides a class and various tools for financial time
series. This includes basic functions such as scaling and sorting,

Deprecated LineItem/UnitTaxAmountMustBeGreaterThanZero error in favor of UnitTaxAmountCannotBeNegative
Add support for tax_amount field on transaction line_items
Add support for source_merchant_id on webhooks

New features since 0.1.0:
- Added event study analysis: an event study is a statistical method
to assess the impact of a particular event on the value of equities
and it is now possible to perform this analysis through the API
alphalens.tears.create_event_study_tear_sheet. Check out the
relative NoteBook in the example folder.
- Added support for group neutral factor analysis (group_neutral
argument): this affects the return analysis that is now able to
compute returns statistics for each group independently and
aggregate them together assuming a portfolio where each group has
equal weight.
- utils.get_clean_factor_and_forward_returns has a new parameter
max_loss that controls how much data the function is allowed to drop
due to not having enough price data or due to binning errors
(pandas.qcut). This gives the users more control on what is
happening and also avoid the function to raise an exception if the
binning doesn't go well on some values.
- Greatly improved API documentation
Alpha Vantage delivers a free API for real time financial data and
most used finance indicators in a simple json or pandas format. This
module implements a python interface to the free API provided by Alpha
Vantage (http://www.alphavantage.co/). It requires a free API key,
which can be requested on http://www.alphavantage.co/support/#api-key.

done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:
pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F
