Making Money Manager EX more Linux friendly

Post by Geoplace »

Hi to all developers of the great Money Manager Desktop and Mobile App.

I'm having trouble finding up to date Desktop linux versions of this software.

I've tried to compiled without success on OpenSuse 13.2.

So I sugesst that we can Use:

https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service

The Open Build Service (OBS) is a generic system to build and distribute packages from sources in an automatic, consistent and reproducible way.
It makes it possible to release software for a wide range of operating
systems and hardware architectures. The OBS reference server, which we use to build our distribution, currently has over 35.000 users
that are building over 200.000 packages for 22 base distributions on 6
architectures.

For Packagers
  • Automatic resolving of dependencies to other packages. If a package depends on another package, this package will be triggered for a
    rebuild automatically if the depending package changes.
  • Linking to other projects: Patches can be tested against current packages from other projects.
  • Open interfaces allow different clients and external services (e.g. SourceForge, kde-apps.org) to interface with the Open Build Service and to use its resources.
If someone can tutor me I could try to help with this important service to the comunity.

Regards, Happy New Year 2016.

Just curious if OBS creates an .rpm, complete with a list of dependencies.  If so, this may be of use for Fedora users as well as all other RedHat based distros. I have found a version for Fedora, and it works well, but is rather old.

As my knowledge reach I understand that OBS creates the rpm with the dependencies stated at the SPEC file and could be used to create packages for many Linux Distros including Fedora.

i think perhaps one of the new 'snap' packages could be a very good alternative

I would like to see an appimage or a flatpak. If they add it to the Ubuntu repos that would be nice for me but not handy for all users on all distros. Flatpaks and appimages are very universal across linux.
