David,

Thanks for the quick reply.

No. As I said, I have compiled gnucash from CVS about a dozen times now 
without errors like this one; just having problems today with the new 
CVS version. I didn't know whether or not to remove the older version.

Yes. I did a ./configure --prefix=/usr, make, su, make install.

I found two files with the libg-wrap- prefix in /usr/lib: 

libg-wrap-runtime-guile.so.2 (symlink)
libg-wrap-runtime-guile.so.2.0.0

All the rest have the libgw- or libgwrap- prefixes.

As it seems I have two versions of g-wrap installed (which I knew) in
the same place (which I didn't), what is the recommended place to
install g-wrap 1.3.2 so it won't hose anything else on my system, as I
thought g-wrap 1.3.2 wasn't backwards compatible with 1.1.11 (which I
have in Mandrake 8.2)? How do I remove g-wrap 1.3.2 and put in its new
location?

Thanks in advance,

John
