Description Jack 2019-03-06 22:08:02 UTC
KMM uses a number of external libraries, such as libofx and aqbanking (just two examples) and sometimes problems are actually due to something in that library and not directly in the KMM code.  To help debug this, KMM should display the version of such external libraries somewhere.  I don't have a strong opinion, but possibilities include
- the libraries tab of the about KMM dialog
- on the plugin's info display on the Settings/Configure KMyMoney dialog
- the File/Information listing (or a new listing in parallel to that one
- a new Information Report

Note: I don't actually know if it is possible to determine the version of such libraries used at runtime, as opposed to compile time, but at least for libofx, you can change the libofx version without recompiling KMM, so the difference may be important. 

This might be considered as an extension for bug 385249, but I think the implementation would be sufficiently unrelated to file separately.
