Bugzilla Bug 219325

kmymoney2-0.8.9 released.

Created an attachment (id=152573) [details]
preliminary ebuild

Same as 0.88 ebuild with the exception of not applying the
kmymoney2.desktop.diff patch.  

Version 0.9 (development)is out:
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=4708

Changelog:
The KMyMoney development team is pleased to announce a major step forward for
what has been described as
"the easiest personal money tool out there", with the first public availability
of a new development
release, version 0.9.

This offers many new features and improvements over the existing, stable, 0.8
series;
see below for just some of these.

It should be emphasised however that this is a development release, and as such
some of the newer
features may not be fully functional. Releases like this are also termed
'unstable', so as such,
it is advisable when using it to ensure that you maintain frequent backups of
your files,
including your current (version 0.8) file. That being said, most of the
developers themselves have,
of course, been entrusting their own data to this new release for some time!

One aspect which (as is not uncommon for open source software) is particularly
lacking
is up-to-date documentation. Be assured that we are working on this aspect, and
any offers
of help will be appreciated. Now for the good news.

New Features
------------

- Charts. Many of the reports produced by KMyMoney may now be displayed in
chart form. Line, bar,
stacked bar, pie & ring charts are supported where appropriate.

- Budgets. A new budget feature allows you to specify your future expectations
of income and expenditure,
and then to compare your actual performance against these. You can use your
historical data to
have KMyMoney create a basic budget for you. Budget reports can be displayed as
charts if desired.
Monthly budget overruns can be displayed on your home page, but can be removed
if you find it
too depressing.

- Forecasts. A forecast can be produced of the future balances of your critical
accounts,
based either on regular scheduled transactions or your historical data. (Sadly,
we are unable
to accurately predict the future value of your investments!). Forecast charts
based
on historical data are under development.

Major Enhancements
------------------

Many enhancements have been made to existing functionality, to improve your
user experience.
Among the foremost of these are the following:

- New 'wizards' have been produced to simplify the setting up of new accounts,
and complicated
situations such as loans and mortgages. One wizard in particular will guide
first time users
through the setting up of their new file, and template lists of frequently-used
accounts
and categories are supplied, often tailored to nationality.

- Several new options have been provided to enable you to configure KMyMoney to
your personal requirements.

- Defunct accounts may now be marked as closed, so that they no longer clutter
up your screens,
though they are still available for viewing if required.

- The views of the various ledgers have been revamped to provide better
performance, and more
facilities for sorting and searching transactions, including a 'quick search'
option.
A new multiple transaction selection function will allow you to do some 'bulk'
changing of transactions.

- A new, more comprehensive, transaction autofill facility, based on payee
name, has been introduced.

- Deletion of 'non-empty' payees and categories is now allowed, with the
transactions
being re-assigned as required.

- Changes have been made to simplify the entry and maintenance of your regular
scheduled transactions.

- Some new reports have been added, new levels of detail have been included,
and many of them
have also been made more configurable. There are also been a number of fixes
related to
multi-currency reports.

- Warning messages can be displayed if the balance on an account exceeds, or
falls below, a given value.

- A summary of all your accounts can be seen in the home page, including
current net worth,
income and expenses, and the total scheduled income and expenses for current
month.

- If you use OFX or HBCI for online banking, your setup has been made easier,
and a manual
transaction matching facility should simplify reconciliation of your downloaded
statements. There is support for new versions of AqBanking and libofx,
providing more
flexibility and reliability.

- And, not least of all, new artwork and cosmetic enhancements may make your
usage
of the product easier and, we hope, more pleasurable.

Patch for kmymoney2-0.9 bump

Ok, here's my patch for the new kmymoney2-0.9 release. I implemented a TODO
item, src_test() functionality. The test suite runs perfectly here on amd64.
The program works as well. 

I tested the 0.9-ebuild and it compiled fine on ~amd64, the program also
worked.

But I wanted to point out, that (despite the hbci USE flag being set),
kmymoney2-0.9 does not seem to contain the HBCI banking module.

From the kmymoney-0.8.9 Release-Notes(
http://kmymoney2.sourceforge.net/index-home.html ):

"The main enhancement in this version is support for the new KBanking (online
banking) plugin, which in turn provides support for the latest version of
AqBanking. In this version, the dependency on OpenSSL has been removed due to
licensing issues. The AqBanking software is available from
http://www.aquamaniac.de/sites/aqbanking/index.php. KBanking 0.9.6 beta is a
requirement (see 
http://www.aquamaniac.de/sites/download/packages.php?package=05&showall=1)"

Since there do not seem to be release notes for kmymoney2-0.9, I could not find
any information concerning this version, but it seems to me, that we need an
ebuild for >=kbanking-0.9.6 and perhaps this requires a newer version of
aqbanking as well (see also #205237)

Just committed kmymoney2-0.9. I didn't find anything hbci related in version
0.9, so I removed the USE flag.


03 Jul 2008; Tobias Heinlein <keytoaster@gentoo.org>
+kmymoney2-0.9.ebuild:
Version bump, bug #219325. Patch by gentoofan23, thanks! No hbci in this
version. Adding USE="qtdesigner".


Leaving open for the 0.8.9 bump.

I just added some more stuff to the 0.9 build:

+  03 Jul 2008; Thomas Anderson <gentoofan23@gentoo.org>
+  kmymoney2-0.9.ebuild:
+  Enable some more ofx stuff, and change dependencies accordingly. Add
+  pkgconfig dep as its needed; Commit signed off by keytoaster.
+

there is 0.9 in portage so closing this up since we try to cleanup old bugs and
this one is definetly fixed :]
