No longer able to import QFX

[Jack]

libOFX and aqbanking provide two different ways of importing OFX/QFX  
files.  (I don't know the exact history, but KBanking is the term used  
to enable the aqbanking library.)  Personally, I find the libOFX  
simpler to configure, although I believe aqbanking has additional  
features.

So, in your case, it is not an intentional change in process, but it's  
certainly an acceptable workaround.

I still have no idea why the KMyMoney OFX (using libOFX) import isn't  
showing up.  In the configure plugins dialog, all plugins on the list  
are generally checked, I'm not sure why any one would not be, although  
in your case, a checked one is apparently not working.

One more thing that might provide more information.  If you run  
kmymoney from a command line, is there any output that might be  
relevant?  It usually says something about the plugins it finds and  
loads.
