I have tried the following steps and I am still in version 4.6.6. I am a newbie to linux. Any help would be much appreciated.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:claydoh/kmymoney2-kde4
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install kmymoney

Your Ubuntu is too old. Upgrade your system and the PPA (ppa:claydoh/kmymoney2-kde4, described here) will work.

Try the following, but I can not promise that it works with your Ubuntu version.

I quote @terdon:

If it fails, it will fail before the make install step and so will not attempt to install anything. It is perfectly safe to try.

cd
wget http://download.kde.org/stable/kmymoney/4.7.2/src/kmymoney-4.7.2.tar.xz
tar xf kmymoney-4.7.2.tar.xz
sudo apt-get build-dep kmymoney
cd kmymoney-4.7.2
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
make

Install with:

  • the classic way with make install

    sudo make install

  • or with checkinstall for a deb package

    sudo apt-get install checkinstall
sudo checkinstall
