GNU Cash Document not found
Last modified: 2008-07-16 20:00:14 UTC
GNUcash Tutorial -> reports There is no documentation available for /usr/share/gnucash/gnome/help/gnucash/C/gnucash-guide.xml. However, "locate gnucash-guide.xml" /usr/share/gnome/help/gnucash/C/gnucash-guide.xml Directory error 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email: " n5xwb@hal-pc.org " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316
gnome maintainers please to fix the file location or the reference (in yelp?).
The gnucash documentation is in a separate package, install gnucash-docs. Coolo, please add it to the default pattern install for 11.0.
Created attachment 179868 [details] gnucash docs not found According to yast2 all 3 available gnucash packages are installed and the location is the problem. I believe the Beagle Indexer (maybe htdig) is looking for the docs in gnucash is looking here /usr/share/gnucash/gnome/help/gnucash/C/gnucash-guide.xml it is found /usr/share/gnome/help/gnucash/C/gnucash-guide.xml
*** Bug 331696 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Why is this marked as fixed when it clearly is not fixed yet? Suse has had this bug since 10.2 for KDE users.
This is still an issue with latest Factory
Duplicate of bug 373282: it works nicely with the package I submitted a few minutes ago. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 373282 ***
I'm not sure that the patch submitted in duplicate bug 373282 addresses the full problem. From what I can see, the patch Vincent Untz has contributed is to yelp. However, if you are running KDE and install gnucash & gnucash-docs, these do not depend on yelp. openSUSE has khelpcenter now handle all help docs in KDE, including Gnome apps, and thus no longer makes yelp a dependency for gnucash-docs. Therefore, correcting the problem in yelp only helps those running Gnome, and continues to leave the problem that appears to have plagued KDE users since 10.2. If I am correct on this, then this needs to get referred to a KDE maintainer for a fix and not just a Gnome maintainer. No? I'm not changing the status, but I hope that this gets revisited if what I say above is correct.
David: the bug was about the issue in GNOME (help got broken because of the yelp/rarian changes). If the gnucash help didn't work in KDE before, then indeed the fix didn't change anything for KDE, so it will still not work. That's a KDE bug that is different from this one, though, so a new bug should be opened. (note that hopefully, in the future, we'll have GNOME and KDE sharing the metadata about help, so this kind of issues wouldn't happen anymore)
