I deleted all "g-wrap* files and directories under /usr.

I downloaded g-wrap-1.1.9-1.src.rpm and g-wrap-devel-1.1.9-1.i386.rpm
from www.ihtfp.org/g-wrap and tried to install the src rpm.  This did
not work!  I first tried with kpackage, the usual way I install rpms.
It gave no weeore or warnings, it just did not do anything! Then I tried
from the comand line:

rpm -i g-wrap-1.1.9-1.src.rpm

This did nothing as well!

Next, I did make install on the g-wrap-1.1.9 tarball, ahd did chmod on
the newly created files. now, there is only a single copy of
g-wrap-config.

Back in the gnucash-1.5.x directory, I;
rm config.cache
./autogen.sh --enable-opt-style-install --disable-guppi --prefix=/opt5.3
> & autogen.err.txt
make > & make.err.txt

This gave the exact same errors as yesterday! i.e.
...
