This module calculates the Modulus 10 Double Add Double checksum,
also known as the LUHN Formula. This algorithm is used to verify
credit card numbers and Standard & Poor's security identifiers such
as CUSIP's and CSIN's.
You can find plenty of information about the algorithm by searching
the web for "modulus 10 double add double".
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.8.8 -> 5.10.0.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=...").

Locale::Currency::Format is a light-weight Perl module that enables
Perl code to display monetary values in the formats recognized
internationally and/or locally.
This is a lightweight module to do currency conversion using the
Currency Converter web service at http://www.webservicex.net/.
The motivation for this module was many fold. First,
Finance::Currency::Convert with Finance::Quote was a little too
bulky for my needs, esp the need to download or maintain conversion
tables. Finance::Currency::Convert::Yahoo seemed to be based on
screen scraping. Way to fragile for my taste.
Finance::Currency::Convert::XE has usage restrictions from XE.com.
[No offense intended to any of the authors above]
The Data::Currency module provides basic currency formatting and
conversion:
my $price = 1.23;
my $currency = Data::Currency->new($price);
print $currency->convert('CAD')->as_string;
Each Data::Currency object will stringify to the original value
except in string context, where it stringifies to the format
specified in format.

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.
2.1.5 - 02 July 2007
o Welcome to GnuCash 2.1.5 aka "Release Candidate 2", the fifth of
several unstable 2.1.x releases of the GnuCash Open Source Accounting
Software which will eventually lead to the stable version 2.2.0.
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.
This release is intended for developers and testers who want to help
tracking down bugs.
o WARNING: Make sure you make backups of any files used in testing
versions of GnuCash in the 2.1.x series. Although the developers go
to great lengths to ensure that no data will be lost we cannot
guarantee that your data will not be affected if for some reason
GnuCash crashes in testing these releases.

2.1.2 - 19 May 2007
o Welcome to GnuCash 2.1.2 aka "Financially secure yet?"the third of
several unstable releases of the GnuCash Open Source Accounting
Software which will eventually lead to the stable version 2.2.0.

Windows for the first time, and it also runs on GNU/Linux, *BSD,

bugs you find to bugzilla
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GnuCash

new features, except for the completed port to the Microsoft Windows

integrated into the overall GnuCash User Interface to give the user a

new features, except for the completed port to the Microsoft Windows
operating system. Minor new features compared to the 2.0.x series
are;
o The Scheduled Transaction Editor and Management dialogs have been
integrated into the overall GnuCash User Interface to give the user a
more consistent experience in creating scheduled transactions.
o Internally, the programming language wrappers are no longer being
generated by the not-so-well-maintained package "g-wrap" but instead
by the well-established wrapper generator "SWIG". In effect, gnucash
does no longer depend on g-wrap anymore but uses SWIG now.
o New printing formats for check printing
o Bugfixes and improvements since the last version 2.1.0 include:
o Start-up behaviour has been improved: Windows size is better,
splash screen can be clicked away
o OFX DirectConnect import uses correct ID fields for transaction
matching
o More Scheduled Transactions bugs have been fixed

more thoroughly and fixed in various places

2.1.0 - 14 Apr 2007
o Welcome to GnuCash 2.1.0 aka "Opening Windows" the first of

release is the very first of to support Windows as a platform and is
intended for developers and adventurous testers who want to help
tracking down bugs.
o WARNING WARNING WARNING - Make sure you make backups of any files
used in testing versions of GnuCash in the 2.1.x series. Although the
developers go to great lengths to ensure that no data will be lost we
cannot guarentee that your data will not be affected if for some
reason GnuCash crashes in testing these releases.
o PLEASE TEST TEST AND TEST SOME MORE any and all features important
to you. Then post any bugs you find to bugzilla
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GnuCash
o If you have the urge to help beyond testing please get involved in
the discussions on the GnuCash mailing lists which you will find at
http://www.gnucash.org. We especially need people to help with
updating the documentation as all texts refer currently to the 1.8.x
series. Please see http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Development on how to
get involved.
o PS I'm not going to list the many features changed or updated in
this release because obviously there is so much that has changed.

zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
set OVERRIDE_DIRDEPTH to find any libtool scripts deeper in the WRKSRC
tree unless they're named something other than "libtool".

BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).

* Get rid of all the "split" argument deduction for makeinfo since
the PLIST module already handles varying numbers of split info files
correctly.
NOTE: Platforms that have "makeinfo" in the base system should check
that the makeinfo entries of pkgsrc/mk/tools.${OPSYS}.mk are
correct.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

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:
- An easy-to-use interface. If you can use the
register in the back of your checkbook, you
can use GnuCash. Type directly into the register,
tab between fields, and use quick-fill to
automatically complete the transaction.
The interface is customizable from within the
application itself (no editing config files :) )

Gary Duzan in PR 32439:
This is the LibOFX library. It is a parser and an API designed to
allow applications to very easily support OFX command responses,
usually provided by financial institutions for statement downloads.
To my knowledge, it is the first working OpenSource implementation
of the OFX (Open Financial eXchange) specification on the client
side.

and of course, lots and lots of bug fixes
also fixes to deal with qt-3.3.5.
file's sole purpose was to provide a dependency on pkg-config and set
some environment variables. Instead, turn pkg-config into a "tool"
in the tools framework, where the pkg-config wrapper automatically
adds PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to the environment before invoking the real
pkg-config.
For all package Makefiles that included pkg-config/buildlink3.mk, remove
that inclusion and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=pkg-config.
around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.
1.8.5 - 11 Dec 2004
o general-customization.xsl patch from Johan Buret
o David Harrison's updates to ch_dep.xml
o Add outline for German translation of gnucash guide.
o chapter overhaul by pks
o update language support list
1.8.11 - 06 Feb 2005
o Add extra sanity checks and verbose error message if the setup
wizard of aqhbci cannot be found.
o Fix potentially missing initialization of gwenhywfar library, as
reported by Peter O'Gorman on Max OS X.
o Properly accumulate splits (bug #165053). Also fixes a (related)
memory leak
o Add explicit dependency on business-utils.
o Adapt to latest changes in aqbanking; external wizard name is no
longer hard-coded here but is asked from aqbanking.
o Enable debit notes again in HBCI.
o Update German translation.
o Thomas Bushnell's patch to protect non-backup pruning (#164875)
o Add the transaction guid to some error warning messages.
o Fix HBCI date range for statement download.
o Fix the last-day-of-month computation for leap years.
1. Alert handling : Xquote can send e.g. an E-mail when some value
exceeds boundaries set by the user.
2. Enhanced the use of XbaeMatrix : allow the user to change settings
on the matrix directly instead of via custom dialogs.
3. Publish full documentation at
http://xinvest.sunsite.dk/htmldocs.html
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
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.
addresses PR pkg/28619 from H. Todd Fujinaka.
- Ability to print reports using Xprt
- Upgraded currency support : it is now possible to define currency
conversions with historical data. They look like ordinary accounts,
but a real account can refer to it via its CTicker.
The samples directory contains an example that shows how to deal
with USD to Euro conversion.
- Ability to save quote data received via 'live update' from Xquote
into the Xinvest *.inv files - this means you can set up your
tools so they automatically collect historical data.
- Integration with a new utility QuoteFilter which serves a similar
purpose as the above 'save live update' feature. QuoteFilter takes
E-mail messages and can store quote information from the E-mail
into your Xinvest data files. The changes to Xinvest for this
are that the Xinvest file format has been extended so QuoteFilter
can use the same files.
- Better integration of the source code with Xquote and QuoteFilter
- Source code cleanup.
- Interpret data feed from Xquote so not only American style data gets
interpreted correctly. Unfortunately there's no clean way to handle
this as the formats that we receive are not related to the user's
settings so the automatic environment dependent standards based
decoding doesn't work.
- Get the help window to behave more normally (resize is possible, single
click makes text appear). Also use less widgets and more standard
constructions (TemplateDialog) for this to make the whole thing simpler.
- Xinvest is now distributed under the BSD license, so it is now
completely free software.
Xquote 2.6.9 is a stable pre-release of Xquote.
The version number bump from 2.3 is caused by a simultaneous release of
Xinvest, Xquote, and QuoteFilter.
Xquote is now released under a completely free license: the BSD license.
Xquote now uses the XbaeMatrix widget to display its information in a
nicely laid out tabular format.
Basic functionality remains unchanged, but there have been quite a number
of small changes :
- use of XbaeMatrix
- simplified widget tree
- source code cleanup
- update of the user interface after each individual quote query
(so you can see the table contents change as the information comes in)
- use of BSD license
- user interface changes (don't show the version number in the status field)
- remove sessionXq.c, merge with the Xinvest version of the same file.
- do more effort to read info from an HTTP server when it returns 400 replies.
- Figure out whether the site is using European (on hundred is 100,00) or
American (100.00) punctuation to forward the right format to Xinvest
in a live update.
- Avoid crashes when xquote-rc file contains invalid data.
- Fix a problem with the type list not being taken fully into account for
other than the first server.
- Allow running Xquote 24 hours per day by setting start and end time to
the same value.
- Document "-restore" option in the syntax() error message.
- Make the help window resizable, and respond to a single click.
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
Unfortunately, guile{,14}/buildlink3.mk directly includes it, and I don't
know which dependencies actually need libltdl, so it was a recursive bump.
Hopefully this recursive inclusion can be ripped out of
guile{,14}/buildlink3.mk at some point and bubble down to dependencies that
actually use libltdl, avoiding this headache in the future....
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".

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
extension Makefile fragments, because they really don't have anything to
do with the buildlink[12] frameworks. Change all the Makefiles that use
application.buildlink.mk and extension.buildlink.mk to use application.mk
and extension.mk instead.
