Thanks for your suggestion.

Apparently control-center was already installed on my system:

[root@dharma GnuCash] rpm -Uvh control-center-2.0.1-8.i386.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
        package control-center-2.0.1-8 is already installed
[root@dharma GnuCash]#

Nope. Why do you ask about a system named "greg"?


So basically, on a RedHat 8 system, trying to get gtkhtml to compile, the configure script fails with the following error:

checking for Gnome App libraries (GAL) >= 0.20.1.99... 0.21 found checking for Gnome configuration applet libraries
>= 1.0.0... not found
configure: error:""
"You need Gnome configuration applet libraries 1.0.0 or later to build gtkhtml."

And I do not know where to find those applet libraries. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
