Gnucash Installation Question

[Jeremy Brown]

Chris,

I think I figured out today what the problem was...but I don't really 
know what's causing it.

As you probably know, when you compile a piece of software for a 
Slackware package, you typically run configure with the correct prefix 
specified (usr, for example), then make, then "make install 
prefix=$PKGDIR/usr") where $PKGDIR/usr is some arbitrary directory 
probably located somewhere in /tmp.  Then you can "cd $PKGDIR" and 
"makepkg" appropriately.  Well, g-wrap seems to work fine when I install 
it manually, but when I build a g-wrap package like this I always get 
that error I described earlier (about not being able to find g-wrapped). 
 I'm not sure why this is, as it has worked for all of the packages I've 
built in the past.  It almost sounds like something might be written 
wrong in g-wrap's configure.in.

For now, I guess my solution will be to build packages using another 
method...maybe checkinstall.

Thanks!

Jeremy
