Can anyone recommend a web-based accounting ledger? I've been using
gnucash but I'd rather it were web-based for multiple users.
These look promising:
* ledgersmb - outdated ebuild in bugzilla, requires postresql
* phreebooks - seems well-regarded but no Gentoo-related mention of it
via Google
* tryton - GTK client, somebody went to town for Gentoo in the tryton overlay
* openerp - in portage(!), requires postgresql
hledger-web doesn't seem well-suited for use by non-geeks.

You don't really need an ebuild for LedgerSMB - you just install Postgres and Apache; untar the ledgerSMB files into /var/www/mysite/whatever and add a user to Postgres.
There's perhaps a *smidgeon* more to it than that, but it's not hard and I don't see what an ebuild would realistically add.
LedgerSMB allows you to produce beautiful invoices, because invoice layout is based on LaTeX (or was last time I checked).
I recommend LedgerSMB over SQL-Ledger, but otherwise not wholeheartedly.

May I ask what prevents you from recommending LedgerSMB wholeheartedly?
Anybody tried openerp?
BTW, the tryton client ebuild seems to require setting up crossdev.

With the mention of tryton, I figured I'd throw my vote in for
xTuple/PostBooks. It does require postgresql (as far as I know) but
has great cross-platform support with a Qt client.
