[r21867]Reverse the test for HAVE_DBI ac_cv_header_dbi_dbi_h is set only if want_dbi is true, so testing for != no succeeds if dbi isn't enabled -- which is not what we want.
[21860]Bug #667417 - Fix build with glib 2.31.x Patch by Vincent Untz

Between 2.4.8 and 2.4.9, the following bugfixes were included:
Bug #666329 Empty database after a little while Separate the two uses of QofBook::dirty -- indicating that the book object itself has been edited and indicating that some object in the dataset has been changed -- into two separate variables with separate getters & setters. Use gnc_dbi_safe_sync_all (which doesn't lose data if the save partion errors out) for all be->sync. Reverse qof_book_mark_saved and qof_instance_mark_clean so that the book is dirty for qof_book_mark_saved when it's the instance. Original commit by jralls

Bug #457401 - Print invoice should not be disabled for unposted invoices. Enable printing for unposted invoices.
Add a "features" table to the KVP frame, and pop up an error message if we find a feature we don't know about. Currently there are no known features, so essentially we will error out if we see anything.
Bug #665998 Replace no-op function force_account_dirty with qof_book_mark_dirty.
Bug #658247 - First time setup should prompt to save file. Fix supplied by Bob referenced in bug #665996.
Bug #642276 Bayesian association with Sqlite Wraps the kvp_frame_set_slot_path with xaccAccountBeginEdit()/xaccAccountCommitEdit(). Also clean up some other cases where KVP was set without committing an edit.
Fix table number alignment.
Fix number alignment in table.
Bug #649362 - Transfer Funds Window Exchange Rate and Decimal Points Rounding in Bill/Invoices This patch fixes the rounding by showing the actual value to convert. As a result the exchange rate direction had to be swapped as well to avoid lots of confusion.
Abort posting if not all required exchange rates are given. Note that any exchange rate successfully entered before the posting is aborted are still saved with the invoice.
Bug #665202 - Improve python-finding code. Patch by Pacho Ramos

In 2.4.9, the following languages had their translations updated: French, German, Lithuanian .
The GnuCash development team proudly announces GnuCash 2.4.0, the
latest stable release of the GnuCash Free Accounting Software. With
this new release series, GnuCash can use an SQL database using
SQLite3, MySQL or PostgreSQL. It runs on GNU/Linux, *BSD, Solaris,
Microsoft Windows and Mac OSX.
WARNING: You should uninstall any earlier GnuCash version from your
system prior to installing 2.4.0.
Failing to do so may result in startup errors. In particular on
Windows this may cause "Parse error: entry point not found" errors.
Major changes in the 2.4.0 release include;
* In addition to the XML backend, Gnucash can now use a SQLite3,
MySQL or PostgreSQL database to store the data. This is a new
implementation using libdbi. It supports all features including
the business features. In order to build with this, add
--enable-dbi to the configure command. In addition to the
libdbi-dev package for your distribution, you will also need
the appropriate DBD (libdbi driver) package for sqlite3, mysql
or postgresql.
(not enabled in pkgsrc due to lack of recent libdbi)
* As a replacement for the current GtkHTML HTML engine used to
display reports and graphs, Gnucash can use WebKit. WebKit is
the engine used by Google Chrome on Windows and Safari on Apple.
(enabled in pkgsrc)
2.2.0 - 14 July 2007
o Welcome to the GnuCash 2.2.0 Release.
o With this new release series, GnuCash is available on Microsoft
Windows for the first time, and it also runs on GNU/Linux, *BSD,
Solaris and Mac OSX.
o This release has only a few user-visible new features, except for
the completed port to the Microsoft Windows operating system. In
summary, the following features are new, compared to the older 2.0.x
series:
o Port to Microsoft Windows completed. Note that Windows 2000, XP, or
Vista is required; GnuCash does not run on Windows 98 or 95.
o Data file notice: In version 2.1.2 the format for scheduled
transactions in the data file was changed. Files using the old format
will be read without problems by this new version, but the new
version of GnuCash only writes the new format. The new file format
cannot be loaded by older versions of GnuCash. (If you try, the file
will fail to be loaded with an error message.) As a result, if you
begin using the new Gnucash, and you have data files with scheduled
transactions, then these files will not be readable by older
versions. If you have to make a new data file readable by older
versions of GnuCash, this can be achived by deleting all records of
scheduled transactions in the scheduled transaction editor.
o SWIG is now used instead of g-wrap for providing language bindings.
o The Scheduled Transaction list view is now improved and summarized
more compactly. The Since-Last-Run dialog has been simplified.
o Check printing has been improved, with new formats and simpler
format descriptions.
o Automatic saving of the data file was added.
o Bugfixes and improvements since the last version 2.1.5 include:
o Updated translations.
o Improved handling of Online Banking wizard on Windows.

o Add configure macros for mips, mipsel, arm, and m68k; Fix
compilation on OpenBSD 64bit architectures
o Updated translations: German, Italian, Kinyarwanda
Changes:
1.8.10 - 11 Dec 2004
o Don't use C++/C99 declarations. Declare variables at the top of
the function.
o Updated British English, Czech, Italian, Russian, German,
Brazilian Portugese, Dutch, French, Spanish, translations.
o Fabien COELHO's zero-balance patch to remove accounts of zero
balance from the report.
o Fix a broken recursion problem. Don't call show-acct? from
use-acct? so we don't recurse ad flictum. This recursive call isn't
necessary, just have use-acct? recurse unto itself.
o look in ${srcdir} for build-config.scm.in
o Work around problems with libltdl3.
o don't automatically try to (require 'format), so gnucash will build
on an slib-3 system.
o Added quote sources for Indian Mutual Funds.
o Skip the case when a token is the empty string. This caused many
warnings about a NULL kvp_frame lookup.
o Luigi Ballabio's automake patch to gnucash.m4
o guile-1.6 complains about string->symbol when passed a symbol.
o applied Vasil's patch to improve the transaction report for HTML
export purposes.
o Backport of CVS-head changes to improve register open performance
when working with large account trees (>500 accounts). The new code
caches the quickfill tree so that it is shared by all register
windows.
o create gnc:current-saved-reports, as the file to store saved
reports from cstim. Autoload the saved-reports file at startup
(after config.user/config.auto is loaded).
o Added gnc:report-generate-saved-forms that will generate the scheme
code necessary to create a new report from the saved options of an
old report.
o Added example Menu item "File -> Save all reports" that will call
the new report saving function for all reports. This would need more
work so that not all reports are saved but only the currently
selected one -- any volunteer may feel free to add that.
o Fix saving of report: It now appends to
~/.gnucash/saved-reports-1.8 Statusbar tip is now more verbose.
o Add toolbar element for saving the current report.
o Add function for saving one particular report to the
~/.gnucash/saved-reports-1.8 file. Add extra menu only for customized
reports.
o Remove the previous function for saving all reports since it is no
longer necessary.
o Apply David Reiser's patch for Quicken(tm) cheques with stub.
o Apply David Grant's patch to add TD Efunds.
o make the desktop file HIG compliant.
o change the gtkhtml order to search for >= 1.1 before < 1.1, in
order to try to fix#84707 on systems with multiple versions of
gtkhtml.
o Perry Smith's Null Account Patch. Make sure the security is a real
string before appending an account separator, so we don't try to
create a "null" account.
o Add option to include zero-amount splits in computations.
o fix xaccAccountGetBalanceAsOfDate() to properly compute the balance
at the end of the split list.
o Major change for HBCI, back-ported from HEAD. The HBCI online
banking is no longer based on the openhbci library but instead on the
aqbanking library http://sf.net/projects/aqbanking which is Martin
Preuss' successor of openhbci. This means that now aqbanking-0.9.5 is
required instead of any openhbci package.
o Fixes for x86_64
o Update for new LibOfx, this among other things, gives gnucash
Microsoft OFC support.
o Duplicate match tweaks in import code
o Andreas Rottmann's patch to support g-wrap 1.9.
o provide a default account name so we don't crash when someone
imports a broken QIF that has a !Account without an account name.
o Daniel Lindenaar's patch to implement a check-box in the Invoice
Post Dialog (with a default in the File Preferences) to choose to
accumulate splits when posting an invoice, or post a 1:1 mapping.
o Phil Longstaff's patch to prevent duplicate pricedb entries.
o Heath Martin's x86_64 patch
o Mark search criteria for translation -- somehow this had been
missed all the time.
o Change currency mnemonic for "New Israeli Shekel" from "ILS" to
"NIS".
o Identified and fixed several places with untranslated strings.
o Add configure check for libofx version 0.7.0 and respective error
message. Update docs.
o Improve importer performance by matching imported transactions only
against transactions in the proper time interval.
o send an event when a payment is processed so the invoice gets
updated as "paid" in the search window.
o Make sure we set the proper search-type when we create the query,
otherwise the search will fail later.
Package changes:
. install documentation in share/doc instead of share/doc/html
. cleanup of the Makefile
libintl/gettext if it's available
g/c patch-bb - gnucash nowadays properly fallbacks to using gtkhtml-1.1
if 1.0 is not available, so the patch is not necessary
bump PKGREVISION for these changes
Changes since version 1.8.4 are numerous. For brevity, I'll include
the changes from 1.8.6 onwards. Other changes available at
http://www.gnucash.org.
What's New in GnuCash 1.8.8?
o HBCI - Improve error message when receiving zero balance from bank.
o Add account template for Swiss German businesses "KMU" by Tom Winterhalder
o Add *big* account template for German businesses "SKR04" by Betina Schmidt
o Add Catalan and Turkish translation, Updated German, Italian, Czech, Greek
o Add Turkish account template. Updated Greek account templates.
o Remove debian scripts
o Add a comment about minimum string length
o Fix the ISO_DATELEN to be "long enough"
o Fix handling of HBCI direct debits (fix wrong textkey). Fix and initially
implement handling of multiple banks/users/customers.
o Fixed extremly stupid, old bug that causes weird HBCI errors. Improved user
messages.
o Refactor some GUI code. Improve user messages.
o BillTermDecRef should have been BillTermIncRef when setting new bill term.
o Applied Frank Pavageau's patch regarding capital gains to handle split
transactions.
o Don't make a timespec with tv_sec == 0. Fixes some tests on the alpha
platform.
What's New in GnuCash 1.8.7?
o Use instead of "libofx/libofx.h" as it's not part of our system. Fixes a
dependency problem in 1.8.6 release.
o Small fix from hawkfan to get tests to work when building outside srcdir.
o Fix a bug introduced by Matthew -- ANSI C does not allow you to declare a
variable in the middle of an expression. Move the declaration to the top of
the function.
o We don't need the trailing semi-colon because the #include adds one. The
double semi-colon causes build failures in some cases.
What's New in GnuCash 1.8.6?
o Updated Spanish, Greek, French, Czech, Slovak translations
o Fixed extremely stupid bug in the import value setting workaround.
o Fixed problem with SX formula_cell calls
o Merge missing part of 2003-05-28 commit. The log format changes didn't get
commited for some reason, making the log replayer completely unusable.
o Fixed crash during dialog startup on Solaris.
o Turn off scheme garbage collection during query->scm and scm->query
conversion. It shaves about 50% off the test-scm-query-string tests.
o Make test-scm-query-string test deterministic by seeding the RNG with a
known value.
o Add a "slots" parameter to allow for future expansion. Right now this is
completely ignored.
perl module outside of pkgsrc).
Remove --preserve-dup-deps from libtool, compiles and links fine
w/o it. Prompted by comment from Ron Roskens.
Add RCS tag to patch.
This update is based on patches provided by Ron Roskens (roskens at elfin dot net)
in PR pkg/20271 and his posts to tech-pkg@. Furthermore, this update fixes
PR pkg/20109 by Bill Sommerfeld.
Changes since our last version include:
* src/register/ledger-core/split-register-control.c
If we're expanded, ignore TRANS cursor classes. This prevents
a bug where the exchange-rate dialog is realized when there really
is nothing to do (because we're in an expanded transaction).
* src/register/ledger-core/split-register-model.c
Don't PERR() if we have no account -- this prevents annoying
messages when handling multi-currency txns in the GL. Note:
all GL txns are displayed in the locale currency (if possible).
* src/register/ledger-core/split-register.c
AUTO_LEDGER and JOURNAL register types _ARE_ expanded -- return
TRUE, not FALSE.
* src/report/standard-report/advanced-portfolio.scm: add extra
arguments to prevent scheme crash.
* src/gnome/glade/sched-xact.glade: Need to start the Editor dialog
as non-visible so the ledger get's sized properly
* src/gnome/dialog-scheduledxaction.c: resize the cal after the
dialog is shown, so it get's sized properly.
* src/register/register-gnome/gnucash-style.c: temporary fix to
prevent 105346, until a real fix can be created. There is still
a visual artifact leftover, but at least it doesn't crash.
* src/scm/tip-list.scm: remove the tip that says that this is a development
version. (Thanks, pogma)
* src/scm/command-line.scm: remove the "development version" string
when running "gnucash --version"
* src/import-export/import-backend.c: Add heuristic for duplicate
matching by check number.
* doc/README.OFX: Update
* src/engine/gnc-lot-p.h: some strange platforms assume "char" is
0..255 instead of -128..127. Force a "signed char" to make sure
we get the latter interpretation.
* src/app-utils/gnc-ui-utils.c: Don't round unless force_fit is true.
Fixes Debian Bug #179802.
* src/bin/overrides/gnucash-build-env.in: add business-utils
* src/business/business-utils/Makefile.am: make scm-links so you
can run gnucash from within the build tree
* po/it.po: Updated Italian translation by Lorenzo Cappelletti
<L.Cappelletti@mail.com>.
* src/import-export/qif-import/qif-file.scm: mark "splits" as negative
to make sure the numbers are reflected appropriately.
* src/import-export/qif-import/qif-objects.scm: add a neg? value to
a qif-split; use this when converting the split-amount.
Fixes bug #105179
* src/calculation/Makefile.am: need to add GUILE_INCS
* src/engine/Makefile.am: add ${INTLLIBS} for gettext() et al on
platforms that don't have it in libc
* src/backend/file/io-gncbin-r.c: don't need to define functions
that are never used, so move the #ifdef around. Fixes # 105124
* src/import-export/qif-import/qif-file.scm: fix a
wrong-number-of-arguments fatal crash when trying to reparse
dates.
* src/scm/main.scm: turn off devel version message
