KMyMoney 5.0.0 Release Notes 2018/02/06

The KMyMoney development team is proud to present version 5.0.0 of its open source Personal Finance Manager.

As with every release, the KMyMoney development team has been working hard to make this release better and easier to use in every way. We have also made quite a few improvements. We are confident you will like what you see.

The largest amount of work has gone towards basing this version on KDE Frameworks. Many of the underlying libraries used by the application have been reorganized and improved, but most of that is behind the scenes, and not directly visible to the end user. Some of the general look and feel may have changed, but the basic functionality of the program remains the same, aside from intentional improvements and additions.

In addition to adapting to new and updated libraries, there have also been numerous bug fixes, as well as several new features and improved functionality. Although this means there have been some major changes to the underlying code, this version has actually been used in production by many of the developers, so it has actually had a significant amount of testing.

Here are some of the new features found in this release:

  • Multiple improvements to reports, including better performance.
  • Allow logarithmic axes in report graphs.
  • When deleting a security, automatically delete its prices.
  • Allow separate beginning balance accounts for different currencies.
  • Added support for several new currencies

Here are some of the major bugs which have been fixed:

  • Elimination of several crashes.
  • Fix problems with report graphs using older data.
  • Fix rounding errors in some investment transactions.
  • Removed Yahoo from stock and currency price sources, as they no longer provide this service

There are a some changes which will need some adjustments on the user's side if you are upgrading from 4.8.x or an older version The program searches for the templates for the printcheck plugin in different locations. The user needs to account for this in the plugins setting dialog.

Known issues

  • Executing SEPA online transfers are not working. Transaction download is still possible
  • Italian documentation requires KDE Frameworks newer. than 5.30.0. In case you run into problems compiling the Italian documentation because you have an older version of the KDE Frameworks, simply remove the file po/it/docs/kmymoney/index.docbook from the released source, re-run cmake and build the application.

For a full list of the changes please check out the changelog. We highly recommend upgrading to 5.0.0.

KMyMoney 4.5.0 Release Notes 2011/08/16

The KMyMoney is pleased to announce the release of a stable version for KDE Platform 4. With over 15 months of development, this new version is the starting point of a new series of KMyMoney versions to leverage the stellar features offered by the KDE Platform.

Throughout this effort, our focus has been to maintain feature-parity with previous versions, maintaining and improving the high level of quality that your personal financial data deserve. This version has gone through an intensive testing, allowing us to find and fix many bugs and improve the usability of the application.

Along the way, we did manage to add some new features:

  • Better documentation
  • Works with the latest version of AqBanking
  • Improved usability of the online banking features
  • Uses KWallet to store online banking passwords
  • The consistency checks runs automatically before saving your data, it now checks for a wider range of problems, and it automatically corrects many of them.
  • Runs in all operating systems supported under KDE

Since the release candidate in May, about 70 bugs were fixed, and over 400 commits were made to the code alone, not including documentation and translations. The application is now fully Qt4 native and is ready to accept new features.

In the process, we are also moving from Sourceforge to KDE. For this release, we have created a new mailing list for users only, kmymoney@kde.org, which replaces the kmymoney2-users list.

The release of a stable version for KDE4 also marks the beginning of the end for the KDE3 series. In maintenance mode since 1.0.0, it is progressively going into frozen state. New features will be added to the KDE4-series only, with the KDE3 code receiving only critical fixes.

All in all, we believe that the port to KDE4 has grown a better application, and even more important, a better team. We have asked you for patience while we took this much needed step, now are ready to start adding new features again. Right after we take some a deep breath and some rest, because this has been very stressful to all of us.
