Gnucash on Slackware
With Gnucash evolving into a Gnome 2 application, and Slackware Gnome support being picked up by Dropline Gnome, it has become much easier to install Gnucash on a Slackware system. In fact, we may even hope for the day when Gnucash itself is distributed with Dropline Gnome. In the meantime, here are some success stories.
Slack 11 + GnuCash 2
Outline: (see links below for Slack 10.x and 9.x for more details)
- Start with a fresh Slack 11 installation
- Do a full dropline install. Probably only a few Dropline packages are required - if someone has time it would be a great contribution to figure out what the minimum set of packages is.
- removepkg guile-1.8.0-i486-1
- Install guile 1.6.8 from sources
- Install g-wrap 1.3.4 from sources
- Install slib 2d6
- ./configure && make && make install.
Slack 10.1 + GnuCash 1.8
See this writeup by J. Milgram and also this writeup provided by Amigo Linux.
Slack 9.0/9.1 + GnuCash 1.8
See this writeup by RJ Marquette. RJ has also provided directions for installing the help files.
Prebuilt packages and other links
- Some pre-built GnuCash packages for Slackware, including packages for Slack 7 and 8. Haven't tried these - perhaps someone could comment on them. Some (or all?) of these were built by Jay the Obscure who offers other Slackware 10.2 Packages as well.
- Rich Shepard offers a prebuilt GnuCash 2 package for Slackware 10.2.
