There is a pre-compiled version for Red Hat 8 on 
the CDs that you used to install Linux. I am running 
Red Hat 9.0 but assume that the menu structure of 8 
is the same. Go to System Settings - Add/remove Applications,
then find gnucash under Office/Productivity. Cluck on gnucash 
and then Install.You will be prompted for each CD as it is needed.
