Gnucash for Vector Linux 4.0
16th January 2004

Gnucash 1.8.8 is compiled with libOFX & OpenSP support.

There are the following dependencies...
From Existing Vector Linux 4.0...
db1-1.85-i386-1
gdkpixbuf-0.17.0-i386-1
imlib-1.9.14-i386-1
From Slackware 8.1...
bonobo-1.0.2.0-i386-1
gal-0.19.2-i386-1
gnome-libs-1.4.1.7-i386-1
gnome-print-0.36-i386-1
gtkhtml-1.0.2-i386-1
guppi-0.40.3-i386-1
libghttp-1.0.9-i386-1
libglade-0.17-i386-1testing/printer/
libxml-1.8.17-i386-1
oaf-0.6.10-i386-1
orbit-0.5.17-i386-1
Newly made Vector Linux 4.0 packages...
g-wrap-1.3.4-i586-1
guile-1.6.4-i586-1
slib-2d6-noarch-1

/usr/lib/libgtkhtml.la must be modified from standard...
In the "dependency_libs" field in libgtkhtml.la, "/usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.la"
must be changed to "/usr/lib/libfreetype.la"

All the slackware 8.1 dependencies inluding the modified libgtkhtml.la are in
the gnucash-slackdeps-1.8.8-i386-1.tgz package.
In addition the new packages & gnucash-1.8.8-i586-1 must of course be installed.

Before running as a user gnucash must be run as root. (An attempt should do even
if you run in a console with no x & it fails this should be sufficient).

Many thanks to TonyH9904 of Vector Linux forums who spent many hours / days on this & made a major
dependency breakthrough. Also thanks to R J Marquette & Jason Childs (see
http://rjmarq.org/gnucash.html ) & vector of Vector Linux who provided the link.
Also thanks to other in Vector Linux Community for their encouragement.
Any complaints contact ren on Vector Linux forums.
