Further to these two posts, it would seem that following a reinstall, I had
two conflicting versions of gnucash installed. I was previously running
1.8.9. The reinstall put back 1.8.6. I have uninstalled the RPM, but I
still have a working version of 1.8.9 with the gnucash executable in
/usr/local/bin. Running "make uninstall" from a newly extracted tarball
produced error messages (from memory, I need the original Makefile.) I am
still getting the error message about guile.
I could try to continue with what remains, but that isn't desirable. What do
I need to remove to start again with a "clean sheet"? Sorry if this is not
exactly a gnucash problem, but for all I know, it might vary with the
program. 1.8.9 installed straightforwardly from source, originally.
