Package: gnucash Version: 2.2.9-2 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
When opening some accounts (the most complex ones?), they are no longer displayed if gnucash has been started under UTF-8 locales (see attached snapshot, as an example). If need be, I can try to provide a simple testcase, but it would probably take me several hours. This problem seems to be very recent (a few days?). But I'm not sure, because sometimes I may have started gnucash under ISO8859-1 locales. The problem still appears after removing the ~/.gnucash file and reverting to an old XML file (so, the problem is not due to a recent change in these files). The problem is reproducible with the local X server and a remote one (Mac OS X Tiger machine, when there has never been any problem until now). FYI, I get the following messages in the terminal: gnc.bin-Message: main: binreloc relocation support was disabled at configure time. Found Finance::Quote version 1.17 gwenhywfar-INFO: plugin.c: 574: Plugin type "ct" unregistered gwenhywfar-INFO: plugin.c: 574: Plugin type "configmgr" unregistered gwenhywfar-INFO: plugin.c: 574: Plugin type "dbio" unregistered Note: I'm setting this bug to "grave" even though the problem disappears when I start gnucash under ISO8859-1 locales, because UTF-8 is so important and is now the default in Debian. A workaround may be provided by a wrapper doing LC_CTYPE=C gnucash but I don't know the consequences. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnucash depends on: ii gconf2 2.28.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii gnucash-common 2.2.9-2 A personal finance and money track ii guile-1.6-libs 1.6.8-6.4 Main Guile libraries ii guile-1.6-slib 1.6.8-6.4 Guile SLIB support ii libaqbanking29 4.2.0-2 library for online banking applica ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.20-2 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.28.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.24.2-1 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.24.2-1 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.10.2-2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.8.8-2 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libcrypt-ssleay-perl 0.57-2 Support for https protocol in LWP ii libdate-manip-perl 6.05-1 module for manipulating dates ii libenchant1c2a 1.4.2-3.4 a wrapper library for various spel ii libfinance-quote-perl 1.17-1 Perl module for retrieving stock q ii libfontconfig1 2.6.0-4.2 generic font configuration library ii libfreetype6 2.3.11-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgconf2-4 2.28.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.4-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.22.3-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome2-0 2.28.0-1 The GNOME library - runtime files ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.26.0-1 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeprint2.2-0 2.18.6-1 The GNOME 2.2 print architecture - ii libgnomeui-0 2.24.2-1 The GNOME libraries (User Interfac ii libgnomevfs2-0 1:2.24.2-1 GNOME Virtual File System (runtime ii libgoffice-0-4 0.4.2-4.1 Document centric objects library - ii libgsf-1-114 1.14.16-1 Structured File Library - runtime ii libgtk2.0-0 2.18.5-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libgtkhtml3.14-19 3.28.2-1 HTML rendering/editing library - r ii libguile-ltdl-1 1.6.8-6.4 Guile's patched version of libtool ii libgwenhywfar47 3.11.0-1 OS abstraction layer ii libice6 2:1.0.6-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libktoblzcheck1c2a 1.24-1 library for verification of accoun ii libofx4 1:0.9.0-3 library to support Open Financial ii liborbit2 1:2.14.17-2 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.26.2-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpopt0 1.15-1 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 2:1.1.1-1 X11 Session Management library ii libx11-6 2:1.3.2-1 X11 client-side library ii libxml2 2.7.6.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii psfontmgr 0.11.10-3 PostScript font manager -- part of ii slib 3b1-3 Portable Scheme library ii x-ttcidfont-conf 32 TrueType and CID fonts configurati ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-15 compression library - runtime Versions of packages gnucash recommends: ii gnucash-docs 2.2.0-3 Documentation for gnucash, a perso gnucash suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
