Chris: I appreciate your points. Just 1 or 2 minor nits, see below.

I DID buy a distro. Let me clearly state now, and agree ... the problem 
probably is more a RedHat rpm/distro than gnucash. Thanks for 
elucidating this, guys.

I agree, that's my stance. Sorry you had to throw the arrogance bit in 
though. However I do find that is usually an early response when 
criticism is thrown in. I can only offer what I have said for years to 
others in this situation 'Lighten up, you will benefit from it if you 
do. Going down the personal flame path NEVER achieves a damn thing.'.

> My point? Complaining is not the answer here. 
I disagree. If something seems wrong: complain. If people take offence 
the above paragraph might be worth rereading. It is a bit sad to me how 
quickly people take stuff personally at the drop of a (Red? :-)) Hat.

Cheers, and ciou
