Subject: Can't do "ledger payees" or "ledger accounts"

I can't do "ledger payees" as described in 8.3.4 of the manual nor can I do
"ledger accounts" as listed in 5.6 of the manual.  I'm running on debian
and the default repository settings gave me ledger version 2.6.2.
Please help me understand what I'm missing.

Thank you

Thank you Craig.
I just tried to install the newer version using the debian instructions and
the "For the Impatient" instructions on:
https://github.com/jwiegley/ledger/

It is failing because my debian only has cmake 2.8.2 and the process
requires 2.8.5.  There is probably a simple answer but I don't know it as
my debian skills are still modest at best.

Notes: I'm running debian Squeeze (6.0) and already did an update and
upgrade with nothing left to download.  If i modify the dependency check in
the CMakeLists.txt file to be 2.8.2 it still fails because of unknown cmake
commands (of course, but in my ignorance I had to try!) :)

Guidance please?

ok, so I didn't read the ENTIRE readme-1st file and at the bottom is the
answer.
Thank you developer for being considerate/caring/thorough enough to do
that.  I apologize for not reading the entire document before asking my
question.
I will post when I'm done if there is a problem still.

<sigh>@myself :(

started over with the manual directions to do the boost update and cmake
update and then the manual instructions for building ledger and the final
step (last line of the readme-1st file ends with "--python install".
when I run that line it comes back with:
acprep: ERROR: Unknown build phase: install

Any suggestions please?

Run ./acprep opt update
Then cd to the build/ledger/opt subdirectory and run "sudo make install"

I'll take a look at the readme-1st file.  I haven't looked at that in a
while.

Subject: Re: Can't do "ledger payees" or "ledger accounts"

apparently I'm missing something when I do the portion where I update cmake
because "./acprep opt update" is telling me that cmake is still at 2.8.2
but I don't remember getting any errors when I went through the update
process.
thoughts?

BTW: thank you for your help

Thank you for your help, i was curious what you found?
Just so you know, I have done it on my live system and then tried it in two
different virtual machines all with the same results which just means it is
likely that my process is flawed (I'm very newbie-ish at linux).

At this point I have had to completely uninstall ledger and
then re-install from the repositories and using the older version.
I will use 2.6.2 until someone can set me on the right track.

Thank you again,
Scot

I installed a fresh debian on a VM, but didn't get much further than that.
 Too many kids! I'll try to squeeze it in today.
