GnuCash and KmyMoney not installing together

I am running SuSE 10.1. Recently I have discovered that GnuCash and KmyMoney
will not install together. Installation of GnuCash result in dependency
problems and will attempt to delete KmyMoney. If GnuCash is installed and I
try to install KmyMoney I also run into dependency problems and the
installer will try to delete GnuCash as a possible solution.
Has anyone noticed this problem?

How are you trying to install those applications, and where did you get
them from? What versions are they?

If you are getting them from the ftp.gwdg.de/linux/misc/suser-oc2pus/
site then you may not be getting all the dependencies as they are in
the process of migrating those files to the Packman repository.

I have previously installed gnucash (1.8.9-17 i586) and kMyMoney
(0.8.5-3.1) on my computer under Suse 10.0 and ran into a little
difficulty with the online banking files. Yesterday I updated the
kMyMoney to version 0.8.5-99pm.cvs20060920 i586 from the Packman site.
Both programs seem to be working without any problems.

I'm also running 10.1 and already had GnuCash installed. Just installed
KmyMoney using YAST with the DVD as source. Had no problems - except
Firefox crashed during the install!

Graham and Darrell, thanks for responding. I was trying to install
Gnucash-2.0.1. I installed some new aqbanking packages which are needed by
this version of Gnucash. These packages were causing the problem. After
backing off to the previous version of aqbanking, I was finally able to
re-install the 1.8.9-17 version of GnuCash.

That is good to know. I think I will wait on updating GnuCash.

I too found trouble with the online banking. In fact I never attempted
after hours of frustration. I wonder if anyone has it working with
some of the major American banks like Chase, Sun Bank or USbank?

That's quite an old version of Gnucash. It's currently up to 2.2 in Opensuse
10.3.

No update problems, either.
