OK, how can I verify that I'm running HEAD?
I did the following
$ cp -a gnucash gnucash-head (to copy my copy of the CVS source tree)
$ cd gnucash-head
$ cvs update -r HEAD -Pd
$ ./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/gnucash-head
$ make >make.log 2>&1 &
$ sudo checkinstall -R
and 
$ /opt/gnucash-head/bin/gnucash &

But the splash screen tells me it's gnucash 1.8.4, same as when I start the 
1.8 branch.

Did I do something wrong?

Thanks, 
Tim
