Payments is usually OK, because the loan information contains the information
as to when the payments are due. If you pay monthly then the number of payments
is 25*12 = 300 payments. Selecting months or years is just a different way
of getting to the number of payments for KMyMoney.

This message usually is shown, when the entered values do not match.
Make sure, that one of the values you see before you press the
"Calculate" button remains empty. If none of the fields is empty,
all the information must match. This seems not to be the case for you.

It's failing because a required library is failing to build. We are trying
to push the respective project (libofx).
