== Installation  ==

=== Requirements  ===

KMyMoney depends on KDE SC 4.7+. Specifically on kdelibs,  kde PIM libs, and kactivities. 

 *g++
 *make
 *cmake
 *libkdepimlibs-devel
 *libgpgme-dev
 *libical-dev
 *libkactivities-dev
 *libgmp-dev
 *libalkimia-dev

==== Optional ====
Additionally, you may want to install other libraries that will provide additional functionality: 

*libofx >= 0.9.2
*Aqbanking >= 5.0.0
*quote::finance (also known as libfinance-quote-perl)

=== Installation steps  ===

If possible, it is always preferred to use a package specifically prepared for your distribution.  However, if one is not available, or you want a more recent version, you can use the latest tarball.  If you really need the most recent version, such as to test a new bug fix, get the source from [https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/office/kmymoney KDE Git] at
 
* '''git://anongit.kde.org/kmymoney'''. 

$ git clone git://anongit.kde.org/kmymoney

To install, read the README.cmake file in the root folder of the source. The basic steps are the following: 

First, make sure you have uninstalled any old versions of kmymoney through your package manager and/or '''sudo make uninstall''' depending on how it was installed last time. Then:

 $ mkdir build
 $ cd build
 $ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/
# optional, to adjust build configuration
 $ ccmake .
 $ make && make
 $ sudo make install

It is important that the prefix is the same one that is used by your already installed KDE software.  If it does not match, you will run into problems later. The separate build directory is mandatory (out of source build).
The ''install'' step should be executed with admin privileges. Either switch to root or use sudo, or the appropriate steps for your installation.

To execute, either look for KMyMoney on the Office menu, or type kmymoney in a console window.

=== Localization ===
'''If you are installing from Git source, you need to install your locale files by hand. If you are installing from the tarball provided above, please skip this section.'''

To localize you will need to download the appropriate kmymoney.po file from http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kde4/&lt;country_code&gt;/messages/extragear-office/ (replace &lt;country_code&gt; with the correct one for your locale e.g. es would give http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kde4/es/messages/extragear-office/) and then, either by switching to root or using sudo, do the following: 

*Copy the kmymoney.po file into /usr/share/locale/&lt;country_code&gt;/ 
*In that folder run:

   $ msgfmt kmymoney.po -o LC_MESSAGES/kmymoney.mo

   Note: use the msgfmt that comes with your distribution not the one needed for kmymoney2.

=== Debian dependencies ===

build-essential
cmake
kdelibs5-dev
kdepimlibs5-dev
libaqbanking29-dev
libboost-graph-dev
libfinance-quote-perl
libgpgme11-dev
libgwenhywfar47-dev

== Guidelines  ==

This version is only suitable for early adopters. It will behave fairly well, but the application might crash and you may lose some data. Make backups often. 

For 3.95 version and later, we use the Bugzilla tracker at bugs.kde.org (BKO). Any bugs you find, please report it and assign to product kmymoney. Also, if you need help write to kmymoney-devel@kde.org. 

=== Link to Debian bugs ===
The bugs in Debian tracker can be linked back to BKO

* Open a bug report in KDE Bug Tracking System (BTS)
* Link it to Debian bug number using "forwarded". See http://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control#forwarded
* When the bug is fixed in KDE BTS, the status will be synced in Debian BTS too.

=== Obtain a useful backtrace on Windows  ===
If you would like to create a bug report about an application crash on Windows you need to take care of the following to create a useful report:

* make sure that you can reproduce the crash
* download the debug information that matches your version ([http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/kmymoney2/KMyMoney-Windows/4.6.3/kmymoney-4.6.3-debug-info.7z 4.6.3])
* extract the archive in a folder of your choice (in this example '''c:\temp\kmm-debug-info''') using 7z archiver
* open '''cmd.exe'''
* run '''set _NT_SYMBOL_PATH=c:\temp\kmm-debug-info'''
* run '''"c:\Program Files\KMyMoney\bin\kdeinit4.exe" --terminate'''
* run '''"c:\Program Files\KMyMoney\bin\kmymoney.exe"'''
* try to reproduce the crash and use '''DrKonqi''' the KDE crash handler that appears when the application crashes (only on Windows 7) to report the crash on bugs.kde.org
'''Notes''':
* '''DrKonqi''' will inform you if the crash report is useful or not (it contains the debug information or not)
* if '''DrKonqi''' says that the report is not useful something went wrong in the above steps
* if you can't reproduce the crash immediately you can run KMyMoney for a while in an environment in which '''_NT_SYMBOL_PATH''' is defined as above (you can use a batch file for that)
* when you no longer need the debug information you can safely delete the folder '''c:\temp\kmm-debug-info'''

== Schedule for future releases ==
Development is active on trunk towards the next version, but neither the [http://community.kde.org/KMyMoney/Features/Plan46 feature set] nor the release plan have been completed and signed off yet. There is also a [http://community.kde.org/KMyMoney/Features/Future wishlist] of features which might be integrated in future releases.
