Bug 797278 - Create an option for type of commodity for Price import:
Currently when you use the 'Commodity From' column for Price imports it
can match against the wrong commodity like COP (Conoco Philips) would match
against the currency COP (Columbian Peso). To fix this add a new column type
'From Namespace' and rename 'Commodity From' to 'From
Symbol' so they match the Security Editor.
Bug 797281 - Gnucash crashes when attempting to match online accounts
The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:
Rewrite the Customer Summary Report to correctly handle multiple currencies.
Improve the Owner Report's find-first function to consider currency when
selecting the account.
Prevent cutting the "anchor" split or pasting another split on top
of it in account registers so that the transaction won't suddenly disappear
from the register page. Displays an explanatory dialog just like trying to
delete the anchor split does. Allow deleting, cutting, and pasting over all
splits in Journal View registers which don't have anchor splits because
they're not associated with any account.
Disable editing the "blank split" (the new split at the bottom of
a transaction in split view) if the transaction itself is read-only.
Use the customer and vendor currency instead of the default currency from
preferences when generating bills, invoices, or credit notes.
Allow assigning a single target account to more than one transaction in the
import matcher.
To do this select the new transactions and right-click to open a single-item
context menu. Click the menu item to open the account selection dialog box. Note
that imported transactions that match transactions already in the eriger, i.e.
those marked "update" or "reconcile and update" are not
eligible for inclusion.
This feature still has some rough edges that are being addressed for the
next release.
Use the default currency from Properties>Accounts for the summary bar
currency to make it configurable.
Allow CSV export of grand total amounts from reports using the trep-engine.
Fix XML file import failures into GnuCash for Android.
Raise minimum CMake version to 3.5 for all platforms.
Prevent crash in Aging Report when the book has no AP or AR accounts.
Fix operation of the "default budget" option.
Change the account-picker dialog to disable the OK button instead of raising
a warning dialog if the selected account is a placeholder.
Fix crash after unloading all files from the QIF import assistant.
Disable the Next button in the QIF import assistant if no files are selected
for import.
New report "Balance Sheet-PNL" combines a Balance Sheet and an
Income Statement in a single report.
Rework localization in C++ on Win32 builds, fixing several crashes and
speeding up file loading by 10x.
Create a console window for displaying stdout/stderr. Define
__MSWIN_CONSOLE__ and recompile to enable.
Keep the selection in the Securities Editor on the commodity after editing
it.
Allow the Securities Editor to stack separately from the main window.
Much more Scheme cleanup and refactoring.
Python console improvements, including switching to Python3 and not killing
GnuCash when quitting the console.
New API:
The following functions can now be used in scheduled transaction credit/debit
calculations:
gnc:amort_pmt
gnc:amort_ppmt
gnc:amort_ipmt
API Deprecations:
gnc:html-table-prepend-column!
gnc:html-acct-table-num-cols
gnc:html-acct-table-append-row!
gnc:html-acct-table-prepend-row!
gnc:html-acct-table-append-col!
gnc:html-acct-table-prepend-col!
gnc:html-acct-table-remove-last-row!
gnc:html-acct-table-render
gnc:second-html-build-acct-table

To compile GnuCash from the source code by yourself, you will need at least Gtk+
3.10, Guile 2.0, Boost 1.54, WebKitGtk 2.4, and GoogleTest 1.7.0. In addition
you will need SWIG 2.0.10 if compiling from git. Please consult the
