Hi:

I am running gnuCash 1.8.0 that came with SuSE Linux 8.2. I had unsuccessfully 
tried earlier to upgrade to 1.8.9 and would now like to try again, to 1.8.10. 
Here is my first attempt: 

1. Downloaded gnucash-1.8.10-1.RH7.3.i386.rpm; tried install with YaST2 and 
got failed dependencies: g-wrap>=1.3.4, libgal.so.19, libgtkhtml.so.20, 
libguile.so.6, libgwrap-glib.so.1, libgwrap-wct.so.1, libqthreads.so.0.

2. Tried to install g-wrap-1.3.4 and got failed dependencies libguile.so.9 and 
libqthreads.so.0

3. Checked with rpm -qi guile, says I have guile 1.6.2-15 already installed 
that provides libguile.so.12 and libqthreads.so.12

I don't understand. Do I need to downgrade guile so as to get libguile.so.6 
instead of libguile.so.12? However, g-wrap requires libguile.so.9?? If 
someone still using SuSE 8.2 has upgraded to 1.8.10, I would appreciate some 
pointers to the correct rpms to be loaded in the correct order.

I am using gnuCash for my personal accounts and am quite happy with it, but 
would like to upgrade to 1.8.10 to try out the access to quotes for Indian 
Mutual Funds, as stated in the 1.8.10 announcement.

Thanks,
Divakar
