Problem with charts on report

Hi Derek,

Thanks again for you answer.

I tried "rpm -ql gnucash | grep -i guppi" and got: 
/opt/gnome/include/gnucash/gnc-html-guppi.h

I am not sure what you meant by "replace 'gnucash' with each of 
the various gnucash packages ...". 
The package I got from Suse is "gnucash-1.8.5-40.i586.rpm". 
I tried "rpm -ql gnucash-1.8.5-40 | grep -i guppi" and got the same result as above.

regards 

tales costa
