installing:
download dsbudget_2.0.24.tar.gz
then 'extract to...'
check 'keep directory structure' and then extract
move the dsbudget folder to /usr/share
create the file 'dsbudget.desktop' and put in /usr/share/applications
this file will also add an entry in the main menu
copy paste the following lines into dsbudget.desktop

[Desktop Entry]

save and exit, run from the main menu or
several ways to create a shortcut on the desktop:
go to /usr/share/applications, right click on dsbudget.desktop and 'copy to desktop'
or in the menu -> all applications -> dsbudget, right click -> add to desktop

I copyied over an existing BudgetDocument.xml and replaced /usr/share/dsbudget/BudgetDocument.xml

This reply is very late as I have had my system up and down trying some different builds and making problems.
I would like to help out, so let me know what you want and what to do next.
Thx, I downloaded and will be testing a build using 2.025 soon.
In the search field, if you can, how would you search for an input monetary amount?
Example - i remember the amount but not the date or in what group i recorded it.
