GNUCash starts then disappears

Post by jcoleman »

This is my last hurdle to load SalixOS on my main system. Thanks for your hard work.
Currently running the beta version (32bit) on the laptop to see if I can get everything working OK.
It's taken a little time but has been worth the effort - it pushes me a little to learn more about how things work in Linux.

If I remember correctly GNUCash worked OK on SalixOS 13.1.2. ; think it used a different version of guile.
The splash screen starts and the tip for the day and then disappears.
Searching the internet it seems to be related to guile / slib but I haven't found the solution.

One solution mentioned is to correct the load path in the /usr/share/guile/1.8/ice-9/slib.scm file to the path for the guile.init file but I could not find a guile.init file - guessed at a few things but it didn't work.

Any suggestions would be appreciated

OK, so slib should be a dependency for gnucash. Fixed. Thanks. :)
