Upgrade

This information comes from the Tryton migration. You should check the latest updates : + https://discuss.tryton.org/t/migration-from-4-6-to-4-8/440 + https://discuss.tryton.org/t/migration-from-4-8-to-5-0

BEFORE THE UPGRADE:

1) Assign rules linked to users to a group (must be done before update).

2) Check taxes and tax codes definitions (inactivate old children taxes and add them to the right codes)

3) Before update, set an accounting category to all products which have accounts and taxes defined (see issue3805 )

4) Execute the script "before.sql"

5) update tryton server (./trytond-admin --all)

AFTER THE UPGRADE:

1) Execute the script "after.sql"

2) synchronize records from Administration > Models > Models > Data

3) You should create the WriteOff Methods and Payment Methods to override the cash journals used for invoice payments and writeoff journals used for writeoff reconciliation. (see Tryton issue7450)

Installation of MyGNUHealth PinePhone and Manjaro Plasma Mobile

Install requirements

• Update de system (pacman -Syu)
• Install gcc (pacman -S gcc)
• Install base devel tools (pacman -S base-devel)
• Install pyside2 package (pacman -S pyside2-es2) (Make sure you use this package! The regular "pyside2" won't work. Thanks Anupam!)

Installation on PinePhone and KDE Neon

• Install in a SD card the plasma-mobile latest image (https://images.plasma-mobile.org/pinephone/)

Install required packages

• apt-get install python3-pip
• apt-get install qt5-qmake
• apt-get install cmake
• apt-get install qtbase5-dev
• apt-get install clang clang libclang-6.0-dev
• apt-get install qtbase5-private-dev
• apt-get install qtdeclarative5-dev qtdeclarative5-private-dev

Create a swapfile (it will be needed during the building process)

1. sudo bash
2. cd /opt
3. dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile bs=1G count=1
4. mkswap swapfile
5. swapon swapfile

(you can later add it to the fstab if you want to have it permanent) add to /etc/fstab
/opt/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0

Download,extract and build PySide2 https://doc.qt.io/qtforpython/gettingstarted-linux.html#getting-pyside2

Fix the following symlinks that are broken:

$ cd pyside2/pyside-setup/pyside3_install/py3.6-qt5.14.2-64bit-release/bin$

$ ln -si /usr/bin/qtchooser ./designer
$ ln -si /usr/bin/qtchooser ./rcc
$ ln -si /usr/bin/qtchooser ./uic

Installation on the Desktop

Nightly Builds to install MyGNHealth on a GNU/Linux Desktop are available at OpenBuildService

Issues

The following are issues that need to be fixed:

• FIXED: DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CREATE_DUMB failed: Cannot allocate memory at startup. Using CMA=340m as a kernel boot param gives enough CMA memory. Colleagues at the KDE plasma channel said they would include it in next image.
