Your support is needed and very much welcome

[Geza Giedke]

Dear Thomas,

thanks for your work on KMyMoney. Here are (ASAP, but maybe not as
ASAP as you wanted ;-) the requested files and answers:

- The Operating System you use (Linux, Windows, MacOS, ...)
Linux

- Distribution (for *nix systems)
OpenSuse

- KMyMoney and KDE version

KMyMoney
Version 4.7.2
Using KDE Development Platform 4.14.33
but I'm using LXDE, not KDE. Except for some missing Icons everything's fine.

- How did you install KMyMoney?
via the distribution repository

keeop up the good work!

regards
 Geza

Since you still use them in your environments you could help me tremendously in this regard. No need to install anything.

If just parts are created (e.g. XML works, but SQL does not), send those and copy any messages that are printed on the console. They might be of help to me.
