- 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.
o Updated or new translations for Japanese, Italian, Traditional
Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Russian, French, German, Swedish,
Portuguese, Brasilian Portugese
o Add French account hierarchy template
o Back-ported fix for locale of new accounts
o File permission fix
o Changed "Opening Balances" to "Opening Balance" to unify the
account name
o Tweak for newer versions of db2html
o Fix a common crash caused by a dangling pointer reference
o Add upper bounds checking on the versions of guile and g-wrap
o Fix for guile-1.4.1 srfi problem
o Added support for VWD as a quote source
all dependencies on packages depending on "png" which contain shared
libraries, all for the (imminent) update to the "png" package.
[List courtesy of John Darrow, courtesy of "bulk-build".]
o Updated or new translations for Dutch, Norwegian, Russian, Greek,
French, German, Portuguese, Azerbaijani Turkic, and Slovak
o Tweaked the exchange rate calculation so that it will work in even
more complicated cases, involving different Euroland and other currencies.
o Added Edit Report Options hyperlink to warnings in reports.
o Added workaround for Guppi barchart legend sorting
(broken in Guppi 0.40.0 - 0.40.3).
o Bug fixes

See -newly added by this commit- section 10.24 of Packages.txt for
further information.
o Euro conversion druid
o Updated or new translations for Brazilian Portuguese,
Danish, German, Nicaraguan Spanish, Norwegian, Portuguese,
Slovak, Spanish, and Swedish
o minor bug fixes
foo-* to foo-[0-9]*. This is to cause the dependencies to match only the
packages whose base package name is "foo", and not those named "foo-bar".
A concrete example is p5-Net-* matching p5-Net-DNS as well as p5-Net. Also
change dependency examples in Packages.txt to reflect this.
o new Polish translation
o Danish and Spanish translation of new account files
o updated Swedish, German, and Portuguese translations
o child accounts can be reconciled with the parent
o support for TrustNet online quotes
o support for precious metal currencies
o bug fixes

first component is now a package name+version/pattern, no more
executable/patchname/whatnot.
While there, introduce BUILD_USES_MSGFMT as shorthand to pull in
devel/gettext unless /usr/bin/msgfmt exists (i.e. on post-1.5 -current).
Patch by Alistair Crooks <agc@netbsd.org>
out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.
