(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

I see gnucash is up to version 2.2.1 as of 8-20-07. Has anyone compiled this on puppy from source to see if it will run without the floating point problems?

I have been checking out these finance proggys and wouldn't you know it I really like moneydance, except you have to pay for it.

Also, I have been looking for kmymoney2 for puppy but cannot find a pet or dotpup. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

As far as I know, there isn't a .pet or .pup package for Kmymoney2. There are too many dependencies that have to be met being a KDE application. This does not mean you can't get Kmymoney2 to run in Puppy. You may want to read my earlier post:

Ok, thanks SimplyFlower. I am running TeenPup which has a bunch of KDE libs already and was hoping kmymoney2 would run on it without any additional libs. So you just compile it from source then?

I'm not very familiar with TeenPup, but if you have Gslapt you could install the slackware packages. If not, you can get a Slackware .tgz and try installing as an alien package in PetGet installer. Or you could just compile it from source.

Remember, you will also need libofx. Kmymoney2 won't run without it.

Its been a while since anything was added to this post and I'm still looking for linux based alternatives to windows based acounting software, it truly is the last necessity before I can honestly do everything I need within puppy.

Has anyone found anything that actually works?

Sorry hankyknot - I can't get past running QuickBooks under Wine. It works perfectly for me although I accept QuickBooks is not ideal for personal bookkeeping.
I'd be very interested if somebody got the latest version of Gnucash running on Puppy.

I'm looking for a business accounting package more than a personal one. Will have another crack at wine over the weekend and see how I get on. Keep your eyes open for a few "help desperately needed with wine" posts

I've read the discussion of finance programs for Puppy with interest.

Has anyone tried MoneyDance on Puppy? It runs in Java on WIndows, Mac or Linux.
I've tried it on my Mac and it ran fine. It _is_ a commercial program ($29); not open source.

..I dont knoiw enough about linux to know which one to try and how to load it to puppy.

linuxcanada.com has a product called Quasar which is available precompiled for the following flavours;

CentOS
Fedora
Kubuntu
Mandriva
RHEL
SuSE
Windows

Which one is best suited to puppy and how do I go about installing non pup apps?

Simply locked me out again so I'm now determined to get a Linux based basic accounting app for my business.

I see that it has been a long time since this topic had any real activity. Is anyone still working on getting and accounting system into Puppy or is this a totally dead issue?

Just a short update would be appreciated.

There is a Kmymoney sfs

New version Grisbi 1.0.0 compiled in ubuntu forum Ubuntu click please

compiled devx Wary 5.5 for Solidpup version 511 here
I will upload the SFS on Google Drive or elsewhere. I got sometimes a segmentation fault.
If someone could do better... I am a newbie, for compiling..
Google Drive, my Grisbi, for try...
Forum ubuntu about segmentation fault "Résolu en supprimant (delete file )le dossier « .config/grisbi ».
Solution trouvée par pbiava sur grisbi.org."
It was a training exercice, for my Puppy Linux license. Sure old versions fit very well my needs, and i can reduce the size by deleting non euro flags, which is a lot of useless stuff.
Wolx, the nice and well finished french pupplet from Wary includes a previous version of GrisbI.

@ Pelo the TROLL

From the sfs you provide grisbi need at least the libpng14.so.14 which come from Slacko


Médor.

my SFS tested with a french precise Puppy Linux works. Only missing some icons. it's not a bad result for the first try. With some help, i will succeed.
We are missing compilers.
