This is a bug that is affecting most distributions, for example: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=576908 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=691503 /usr/libexec/gnucash/overrides/gnucash-env: line 28: /var/tmp/portage/app-office/gnucash-2.6.12/work/gnucash-2.6.12/gnc-guile: No such file or directory ArchLinux package is workarounding this with: sed -i 's/exec gnucash-env [^[:space:]]*/exec gnucash-env guile/g' "${pkgdir}/usr/lib/gnucash/overrides/gnucash-make-guids" Thanks
They also remove /usr/lib/gnucash/overrides/guile
Thanks for pointing this out. I've changed gnucash-make-guids as the Arch folks suggest and made the guile script no-install. The changes will be in the next release.
