libgnc-qof.so.1: cannot open shared object file

[Anthony Dardis]

Thanks. No luck so far. This system did have 2.2.9 installed using Synaptic;
I did a "complete removal" before I started this build. Following your
suggestion I tried:

(a)

env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/

(b)

./configure --enable-dbi --with-qof=/usr/local/lib

Same error.
