Derek,
Thanks for your help. I still have trouble.

I'll take your word for it... my skill level says "no", but how would I check 
like a pro?

Now again, I know better that to doubt you, I have read MANY of your posts and 
you are the de facto Oracle for this list... 
GnuCash 1.8.0 is installed (by suse system installation) and works. Perhaps 
gw-core-utils.c is only needed when compiling? ?
Now, I work from the assumption that g-wrap is NOT installed correctly...  I 
can't find RPM's, go to compile g-wrap-1.3.4, ./configure completes, make 
fails with this error:

So... do I correct this problem (and how) and then hope it will correct my 
first problem? 

I appreciate your advise and assistance.
