 Allin could you please substitute the database in the gretl db server? 
Thanks, will do.
 A remainder: we need a solution for the problem of the icons (and
text) of 
 the help menu.

OK, let's see if we can get to the bottom of this. Here's how the first 
five items on the main-window Help menu have been specified in the gretl 
code to date:
1. ["manual" icon] Command reference
2. [no icon]       Function reference
----
3. [PDF icon] User's Guide
4. [PDF icon] Command reference
5. [PDF icon] Keyboard shortcuts
(And that's how I'm seeing them, on all the various gretl builds I've 
worked with.)
But here's how they look for Ignacio (gretl CVS compiled on Ubuntu 12.04):
1. [gretl icon] Command reference
2. [no icon]    Function reference
----
3. [gretl icon] User's Guide
4. [gretl icon] Command reference
5. [gretl icon] Keyboard shortcuts
That is, both the "manual" icon and the PDF icon are replaced by the 
generic gretl icon, destroying the visual distinction between the two 
help formats.
Now, I have no idea why the menu looks like that for Ignacio. Is anyone 
else seeing the same? Just maybe, the xpm files that underlie the gretl 
icons have got jumbled somehow. It might be worth deleting all the .xpm 
files in the "pixmaps" directory in the gretl source tree and reloading 
them from the CSV repository, and see if that makes any difference.
While I don't understand the source of the incorrect icons in Ignacio's 
build, I decided to make a small change in CVS anyway. Since all the PDF 
files have the same icon, it seemed inconsistent that entry 2 didn't have 
the same icon as entry 1. In addition the "manual" icon is not all that 
great, so I've replaced it with the stock help icon. So in CSV as of now 
here's how those 5 items should look:
1. [help icon] Command reference
2. [help icon] Function reference
----
3. [PDF icon] User's Guide
4. [PDF icon] Command reference
5. [PDF icon] Keyboard shortcuts
