Thanks again, David.
Looks like RedHat 8.0 comes with g-wrap version 1.2.1, which appears to have 
been installed into /usr/share/guile/g-wrap (at least that's the only place 
locate found g-wrap). I have the source for 1.3.2 which I'll compile and 
install into /opt/g-wrap/1.3.2 and try again.

As I don't plan on reverting to gnucash 1.6.x, should I just uninstall the 
1.2.1 version? Or, is it possible to use RPM to change where g-wrap 1.2.1 
gets installed? Something like rpm -ivh --prefix=/opt/g-wrap/1.2.1 <name of 
g-wrap rpm>.rpm? Perhaps using an SRPM?
