I'm not sure what you're talking about here. Both the RPM's for
g-wrap-1.3.4 on sourceforge and the ones on gnucash.org are the same. I
know I put them there. This g-wrap is _not_ broken. the ones in the
redhat-8.x _work_ on redhat 8.0 and the ones in redhat-7.x _work_ on
redhat 7.3. This is the same for gnucash, in fact I
built/installed/tested the rpms for gnucash-1.7.6 against the
g-wrap-1.3.4 rpm's on both sites.

These test rpm's all work. If the above seems to complicated or you
can't figure out how to make it work, flaming here wont help. My
suggestion, install the 1.6.6 rpm that came with redhat and wait until
redhat does a new release with gnucash-1.8.0 in it then use that then.

The rpm's we place on these sites are a courtesy to you, the user. If
you are unfamiliar with the process of testing/using/finding rpm's
_please_ use whatever came with your distro then wait until your distro
releases a new version.
