Gnucash won't start

[Turtle.net]

I'm using gnucash really often.
Today gnucash refused toto start.
When launched from the terminal I get the error :

ERROR: file: "libguile-srfi-srfi-13-14-v-1", message:"file not found"

To make sure that gnucash has all its dependencies installed i reinstalled it : nothing changed
I then upgraded to the latest version (from getdeb) : nothing changed

Any idea ?

I found a way to start it again !

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libguile-srfi-srfi-13-14-v-1.so.1 /usr/lib/libguile-srfi-srfi-13-14-v-1.so


Now Gnucash start again.

:)

That doesn't solve the problem though.

Is it a Gnucash bug or a guile one ?

Did you try running the following to see if that fixed it?

sudo apt-get install -f

edit: Haa, nevermind. I'm sure if you've been around since 2005, you've tried that one. :p

The package was not broken or anything.
For a good measure I purged gnucash and all it's dependencies, and reinstalled them.
I tried a bunch of things until I realised that gnucash was not finding the lib because le file ended in .so.1

That's why I created the link.

Thanks anyway for your help (eventhough I have been here a long time ... I'm far from mastering my system)

I posted a bug to the guile mailing list. We will see what happen.
