Created attachment 199382 [details] make check output in .../src/backend/dbi/test Steps to reproduce: $ wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/gnucash/gnucash-2.4.7.tar.bz2 $ tar xjf gnucash-2.4.7.tar.bz2 $ cd gnucash-2.4.7 $ ./configure $ make check Expected results: tests pass Actual results: tests fail This might be a duplicate of bug 654196, but I'm not sure. Here's the downstream report: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=376555
This is not a bug in GnuCash. This is a bug in libdbi. It means you're using a broken version of libdbi. Fix that and gnucash will work. You can choose to upgrade or downgrade libdbi, your choice. And no, this is NOT a duplicate of bug 654196.
Which versions of libdbi are buggy? The above is with v0.8.3 and I've just tried with v0.8.1 and got a different error. Derek, which version works for you?
See bug #611936 for more information on the libdbi issue. It's a DBI issue, not a GnuCash issue. GnuCash is keeping you from losing data.
Great, and thanks for the link. :)
Reassign version to 2.4.x so that individual 2.4 versions can be retired.
