Thanks to all who helped. Rather than fight the compile, I'll
wait until I upgrade or gnucash gets released using the newer
libraries. I'll continue entering data manually.<br>
<br>
I'm not new to Linux, my first Linux install was on a 386sx16 in
1991. It was kernel version 0.12. I used a 2 floppy
install, a boot/root set distributed by H. J Lui. No
distributions in those days. You had to compile almost anything
you wanted to run. I actually was able to get X to run on a
386sx16 with 8 Mb of memory. Didn't run very well, but it
ran. Debian came a long a bit later and I jumped on that
bandwagon. <br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
