Problem with upgrading to gnucash 1.8.5

[John Reynolds]

Paul,

I can't explain why GC 1.8.1 rpm for RH 8.0 worked on you RH 9.0 system. Nor 
can I explain why GC 1.8.5 rpm for RH 8.0 are not working on your RH 9.0 
system. Why? because I'm not that smart.

I can refer you to the words of the Warlord from an earlier post to this list:

//quote on
What version of Red Hat?  You need to download the specific versions
of GnuCash, g-wrap, and other gnucash-related RPMs that were built for
your SPECIFIC version of Red Hat.  GnuCash ships versions for RH 7.x
and RH 8.  For RH9 you can go to people.redhat.com/notting/gnucash/

You _MUST_ use the correct packages for your specific RH version.

-derek
//quote off

He does point to a solution, "For RH9 you can go to 
people.redhat.com/notting/gnucash/"

Check that out. If it is not there then (1) wait, or (2) build from source.

Hope this helps.
