I got the RPMS from http://www.gnucash.org/pub/

Here are the names of the files I installed :

gnucash-1.8.2-1.RH8.0.i386.rpm
gnucash-docs-1.8.0-1.RH8.0.i386.rpm
gnucash-hbci-1.8.2-1.RH8.0.i386.rpm
gnucash-ofx-1.8.2-1.RH8.0.i386.rpm
g-wrap-1.3.4-1-RH8.i386.rpm

Guppi was already there and is version Guppi-0.40.3-9
Guile was already there as well and is version guile-1.4-8


What I have also done now is to remove Guppi, guile, and Gnucash and
Gwrap.
 
I used red-carpet to install the g-wrap and gnucash. It automatically
went and pulled in Guppi and Guile. 

Everything is working now.

Thank you for you help

Frank C.
