In an attempt to check if the glade-3 generated files still work on
Centos/RHEL5, I tried to build the current trunk on a fully updated Centos 5.
I didn't get that far though. GC trunk requires swig >= 1.3.31. Centos 5 ships
with swig 1.3.29.
Swig is shipped from CentOS base, which means that support repositories such
as Epel (which holds GnuCash by the way) can't ship a more recent version.
As things stand now, it's not possible to build Gnucash trunk from svn on
CentOS/RHEL.
What was the reason to bump swig to 1.3.31 ?
