12.1 M5; Gnucash crash

English Install/Boot/Login
#1

After first installing 12.1 M5, Gnucash worked without a problem in
KDE4.7. Then I installed updates from factory-tested repos and it failed
to start. Also tried installing later version of Gnucash from 12.1 Gnome
repo but also failed. Installed latest updates from factory repos,
getting new kernel 3.1 and it still failed.

Running Gnucash from command line gave the following messages.

Hello:

I have the same experience.

I have compiled gnucash from source and installed it using yast2 sw_single. In both cases, I get the error message discussed in the previous post.

If someone could help point to the offending/missing application, that would be a great help.

#3

Agreed, I have the same problem. A bug report was filed https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=722909

#4

Same bug in rc1

Have you filed a bug report? If not, it will never be fixed. In addition, at
this time it will not be in RC2 and perhaps not in GM.

#6

Yes, here is the report: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=722909

I even put how to fix this.

And the fixed version is queued. Thanks for your excellent bug report.
